Explanation:

- In this case, A is entrusted with Z’s plate by YZ (possibly Z's representative), and A dishonestly runs away with it.

- Option 1: Criminal breach of trust — This involves a person who is entrusted with property dishonestly misappropriating or converting it for their own use.

- Option 2: Criminal misappropriation of property — This concerns someone taking possession of property not originally entrusted to them, then misappropriating it.

- Option 3: Extortion — This involves obtaining property by threat, not by being entrusted and running away with it.

- Option 4: Theft — Theft involves taking property out of someone's possession without consent.

Correct Answer: Option 1, Criminal breach of trust. Here, A was "entrusted" with the plate and dishonestly misappropriated it. This fits criminal breach of trust, not theft.
