Q. The offense of extortion under Section 383 differs from robbery in that

धारा 383 के तहत जबरन वसूली का अपराध डकैती से अलग है

Extortion requires use of force
जबरन वसूली के लिए बल प्रयोग की आवश्यकता होती है

Extortion requires immediate fear of injury
जबरन वसूली के लिए चोट के तत्काल डर की आवश्यकता होती है

Extortion does not require immediate fear
जबरन वसूली के लिए तत्काल डर की आवश्यकता नहीं होती है

Extortion does not involve dishonest intention
जबरन वसूली में बेईमानी का इरादा शामिल नहीं है

Extortion (Sec 383): Involves threatening someone to deliver property, even without immediate presence.
Robbery (Sec 390): Involves actual or immediate fear of injury, and the person must be present when the force or threat is applied.

So, the key difference is that extortion doesn’t need immediate presence or fear, while robbery does.
