Hfelvételt

Hfelvételt is a Hungarian term that translates to "felonious entry" or "burglary" in English. It refers to the unlawful entry into a building or other premises with the intent to commit a crime, typically theft. The act often involves breaking and entering, though this is not always a strict requirement depending on the specific legal definition and jurisdiction.

In Hungarian law, hfelvételt is considered a serious offense. The severity of the crime and its corresponding penalties can vary based on factors such as the value of the stolen goods, whether any violence or threats were used, and the type of premises entered. For instance, entering a private residence is generally viewed more seriously than entering a commercial establishment.

The legal framework surrounding hfelvételt aims to protect property rights and public safety. It distinguishes between simple trespass and burglary by requiring the element of criminal intent upon entry. This intent is crucial for prosecution and can be inferred from the circumstances of the entry and the actions of the perpetrator. Investigations into such incidents typically involve evidence collection, witness testimonies, and the identification of the accused.
