A intentionally puts Z in fear of injury and thereby dishonestly induces Z to deliver money. Which property offence is completed by that fear-induced delivery?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
Section 308(1) defines "Extortion." through intentional fear of injury and consequent dishonest inducement to deliver property. The fear-induced delivery completes a property offence, contrary to "Criminal intimidation alone; delivery cannot create a property offence.", there is consensual delivery rather than taking, contrary to "Theft solely because Z delivered the money under fear.", and the property was never innocently acquired, contrary to "Only later misappropriation of innocently acquired property."
