644. Power to order restitution of property although no conviction
The Court may also, if it sees fit, award restitution of the property taken from the prosecutor, or any witness for the prosecution, or other person, as a result of the commission of such offence, although the person charged is not convicted, if the jury declares, as it may do, or where the offender is tried without a jury, if it is proved to the satisfaction of the Court by whom he or she is tried that such property belongs to the prosecutor or witness or the other person, and that he or she was unlawfully deprived of it through such offence.
