  2. EXTORTION
    • Whoever intentionally puts any person in fear of any injury to that person and dishonestly induces the person so put in fear to deliver to any person, any property or valuable security, or anything signed or sealed which may be converted into a valuable security, commits "extortion".
  3. ROBBERY
    • Theft is "robbery" if by committing the theft or attempting to commit the theft, the offender voluntarily causes or attempts to cause to any person death or hurt or wrongful restraint.
    • Extortion is "robbery" if the offender, at the time of committing the extortion, is in the presence of the person put in fear of death, hurt, or wrongful restraint to that person and, by so putting in fear, induces the person so put in fear to deliver up the thing extorted.
  4. DACOITY
    • When five or more persons conjointly commit a robbery, or attempt to commit a robbery, and persons present and aiding such commission or attempt, amount to five or more, every person so committing, attempting or aiding, is said to commit "dacoity".
