1069. Uncertainty of ownership of property belonging to several persons
In any document in connection with any proceedings for an offence with respect to any property if it is uncertain to which of 2 or more persons the property belonged at the time when the offence was committed, it is sufficient to describe the property as being the property of one or other of the persons naming each of them but without specifying which of them owns the property, and the charge will be sustained with respect to the allegation of ownership if it is proved that at the time when the offence was committed, the property belonged to one or other of the persons without ascertaining which of them.
