There is no rule as such that would forbid equipments on a creature you don't control. You can't TARGET such creatures with the equip ability, but that's all.
Equipment on opponent's creature is still controlled by you, and you can use the equip ability and move it elsewhere, but if you don't, it will work normally. Ditto for stealing the equipment attached to your creature.
See Carry Away which specifically says that it unattaches the equipment it steals - since it wouldn't if it wasn't explicitly mentioned.
So basically the creature would stay equipped, but the controller of the equipment should be able to move it somewhere else (and that never worked correctly since it was in the AI's side of play).
