It proves convenient at this stage to deal with the fourth and fifth ingredients of the offence charged. In the vast majority of criminal cases, unless there has been a confession by an ac
cused, the prosecution, as in this case, invariably relies on circumstantial evidence, giving rise to an inference of the necessary intent. If, and I stress if, you were to conclude that the first, second and third ingredients had been proved beyond reaso
n
able doubt, namely that the accused had received the cheque for or on account of Rewa Dairy and had converted the $4,650 to his own use and benefit, then you might well be satisfied, as a matter of inference, that he had acted fraudulently in the matter, 
t
hat is, that he did not have the consent of the owner of the money, namely his employers Rewa Dairy, to convert it to his own use and benefit, that he knew he had no such consent and could not honestly have believed that he had any claim of right to the m
oney. Submissions were made by Dr. Sahu Khan touching upon the defence of a }{\rtlch\fcs1 \ai\af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \i\fs24\lang2057\langfe5129\langnp2057\insrsid1250086\charrsid14290944 bona fide}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0

 as to the agreement between Pravin Patel and the accused. Mistake of fact however is relevant in considering whether the accused had a }{\rtlch\fcs1 \ai\af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \i\fs24\lang2057\langfe5129\langnp2057\insrsid1250086\charrsid14290944

 reasonable doubt that the accused did not honestly believe (mistakenly or otherwise) that he had any claim of right to the $4,650. Further, if you were so satisfied, namely that the accused converted the money to his own use, and did so fraudulently, tha
