499. When any person is convicted of any offence which includes, or
amounts to, theft or receiving stolen property, and it is proved that any
other person bought the stolen property from him without knowing or having
reason to believe that the same was stolen, and that any money has on his
arrest been taken out of the possession of the convicted person, the Court
may, on the application of such purchaser and on the restitution of the
stolen property to the person entitled to the possession thereof, order that
out of such money a sum not exceeding the price paid by such purchaser be
delivered to him within six months from the date of such order.
