This word merely means, 'to cause to go', 'to escort' or 'to get into possession'. No doubt it does mean physical taking, but not necessarily by use of force or fraud. The word 'entice' seems to involve the idea of inducement or allurement by giving rise to hope or desire in the other. This can take many forms, difficult to visualise and describe exhaustively; some of them may be quite subtle, depending for their success on the mental state of the person at the time when the inducement is intended to operate. This may work immediately or it may create continuous and gradual but imperceptible im-pression culminating after some time, in achieving its ultimate purpose of successful inducement, Thakorlal D.
