remove or erase stolen ipad?

My ipad mini 4 was stolen. I have since purchased a new ipad mini 5 and restored all apps. I would like to erase and remove the stolen device without affecting the new device. Is that possible?

iPad mini 4, iPadOS 14

Here is Apple’s advice for lost or stolen devices:

If your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch is lost or stolen – Apple Support

Use the Find My app to locate a lost or stolen device – Apple Support


Facilities to manage/recover a lost or stolen device are predicated on Find My iPad being enabled on the device before it was lost.


Remotely managing a lost or stolen device will have no impact upon any other devices.
