When an accused person has been convicted of stealing or unlawfully obtaining any property, and it appears to the Court from the evidence that he or she sold such property or part of it to any person who had no knowledge that it was stolen or unlawfully obtained, the Court may, where money has been taken from the accused on his or her arrest, on the application of the purchaser and on restitution of the property to its owner, order that out of the money taken from the accused, if it belongs to him or her, that a sum not more than the proceeds of the sale be paid to such purchaser.
