What Is Entering Premises and Committing An Indictable Offence Charge?
Entering premises and committing an indictable offence involves unlawfully entering a property with the intent to commit a serious crime inside, such as theft, assault, or vandalism. This charge is treated with utmost severity due to the potential threat to personal safety and property. The penalties can be harsh, often resulting in significant prison sentences, making it essential to have an experienced legal team on your side.
Key Elements of the Offence
To secure a conviction, the prosecution must prove several elements beyond a reasonable doubt:
- Unlawful entry: Demonstrating that the defendant entered a building or structure without consent.
- Intent to commit an offence: Proving that at the time of entry, the defendant intended to commit a crime inside.
- Entry of a building or structure: Establishing that the property entered qualifies as a building or structure under the law.
These elements require substantial evidence, such as surveillance footage, eyewitness testimony, or forensic evidence. Circumstantial evidence, such as the possession of stolen goods, can also be pivotal.
Defences Against the Charge
At Rana Lawyers, we apply strategic defences personalised to the specifics of your case. Common defences include:
- Lack of intent: Arguing that there was no intention to commit a crime at the time of entry.
- Mistaken identity: Challenging the prosecution’s identification of the defendant, often supported by alibis or discrepancies in witness accounts.
- Lawful excuse: Demonstrating that the defendant had a legitimate reason to enter the premises or believed they had permission.
Our experienced criminal defence lawyers analyse the prosecution’s evidence, identify weaknesses, and develop robust defence strategies.
