Section 330 of BNS : Section 330: House-trespass and house-breaking.

Explanation using Example

Example 1:

Ravi, a thief, decides to rob a house in a quiet neighborhood. He notices that the house has a small window that is usually closed but not locked. One night, Ravi uses a thin metal rod to open the window and sneaks into the house without making any noise. He steals some valuable items and leaves the same way he entered. This act of entering the house through a window that was not intended for entry and taking precautions to avoid detection constitutes house-breaking and lurking house-trespass under Section 330 of The Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita 2023.

Example 2:

Priya, who has a dispute with her neighbor, decides to enter the neighbor's house to gather evidence against them. She finds a key under the doormat, which the neighbor had hidden. Priya uses the key to unlock the door and enters the house without the neighbor's knowledge. She takes some photographs and leaves the house, locking the door behind her. Priya's act of using a key she found to enter the house without permission and with the intent to commit an offense inside constitutes house-breaking under Section 330 of The Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita 2023.

Example 3:

Arjun, who is angry with his landlord, decides to break into the landlord's house to vandalize it. He climbs over the boundary wall and enters the house through a back door that he forces open with a crowbar. After causing damage to the property, he leaves the house the same way he entered. Arjun's act of climbing over the wall and forcing open a door to enter the house and commit an offense inside constitutes house-breaking under Section 330 of The Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita 2023.

Example 4:

Sunita, who wants to steal confidential documents from her office, decides to break in after hours. She waits until everyone has left and then uses a duplicate key she had made earlier to unlock the office door. She enters the office, takes the documents, and leaves, locking the door behind her. Sunita's act of using a duplicate key to enter the office without permission and with the intent to commit an offense inside constitutes house-breaking under Section 330 of The Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita 2023.

Example 5:

Manoj, who is planning to rob a jewelry store, decides to enter through the roof. He climbs onto the roof of the store and makes a hole in it to gain entry. Once inside, he steals several pieces of jewelry and exits the store the same way he entered. Manoj's act of making a hole in the roof to enter the store and commit theft inside constitutes house-breaking under Section 330 of The Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita 2023.
