committed must necessarily be the property of some person
other than the accused or the beneficial interest in or
ownership of it must be in other person and the offender
must hold such property in trust for such other person or for
his benefit (See Central Bureau of Investigation v.
Duncans Agro Industries Limited: AIR 1996 SC 2452).

manner' in the context are significant.
