Not wishing to turn this thread into a law theory forum but: The advice of the police was 'that you can't steal your own property'. You can and Turner is an illustration of this principle. Would the actions be interpreted as dishonest within the meaning of R v Ghosh, I doubt it. However if the current possesor finds property missing and calls the police, there is every likelihood that an arrest will follow, an interview, then another 2 hours awaiting CPS advice or a bail date to return to the police station for advice to be sought. Whilst it is highly unlikely that it would make it to trial, a night in the cells is always best avoided.
