408 of ipc Whoever, being a clerk or servant or employed as a clerk or servant, and being in any manner entrusted in such capacity with property, or with any dominion over property, commits criminal breach of trust in respect of that property, shall be punished with imprisonment of either descripttion for a term which may extend to seven years, and shall also be liable to fine.

IPC 409.
