Stealing a person

(1) A person is guilty of stealing another person– (a) who kidnaps him; or (b) who unlawfully takes or detains him with intent to deprive of the possession or control of him any person entitled thereto, or with intent to steal anything upon or about his body, or with intent to cause any harm to him. (2) For the purposes of this section it is not necessary to prove that the person stolen had been taken from the care, charge or possession of any person if it be shown that some person other than the accused person was entitled to the control or possession of the person stolen. 74
