I have a friend who committed public theft, that is, he took something belonging to the public, and the amount was about 10,000 yuan. Will he be sentenced? Can I return to my original unit?

Stealing public or private property by secret means for the purpose of illegal possession, if the amount is relatively large (here 1,500 yuan is the starting point for a large amount, and 15,000 yuan is the starting point for a huge amount), it is a crime of theft.

If you take advantage of your position (not taking advantage of your position, there is a difference) to extort public property, you can be convicted of corruption or embezzlement, depending on the unit. The nature and position of your friend, etc.

If you commit a crime, you generally cannot return to your original unit, especially civil servants.
