Then use chown():
chown LIST
Changes the owner (and group) of a list of files. The first
two elements of the list must be the NUMERICAL uid and gid, in
that order. Returns the number of files successfully changed.
$cnt = chown $uid, $gid, 'foo', 'bar';
chown $uid, $gid, @filenames;

The manpage for chown(2) does state that it's use is 'change owner
and group of a file', and the perl function is no different.
