Whoever wrongfully restrains any person in such a manner as to prevent that
person from proceeding beyond certain circumscribing limits, is said "wrongfully
to confine" that person.
Illustrations

proceeding in any direction beyond the circumscribing line of wall. A wrongfully
confines z.
A places men with firearms at the outlets of a building, and tells Z that they will fire at Z if Z attempts leave the building. A wrongfully confines Z.
