syāt sāhasaṃ tv anvayavat prasabhaṃ karma yat kṛtam
niranvayaṃ bhavet steyaṃ hṛtvāpavyayate ca yat //

An offence (of this description), which is committed in the presence (of the owner) and with violence, will be robbery; if (it is committed) in his absence, it will be theft; likewise if (the possession of) anything is denied after it has been taken.
