Burglary

The criminal law of the country does not speak of an offence called burglary. Hence it becomes necessary for the insurers to lay down in the policy the definition of the term. As normally understood burglary is:

(a) Theft of property from the premises following upon felonious entry of the said premises by violent and forcible means.

(b) Theft by a person in the premises who subsequently breaks out by violent and forcible means provided there shall be visible marks made upon the premises at the place of such entry or exit by tools, explosives, electricity or chemicals. Use of force may be against property and person.

Burglary insurance is as essential as Fire insurance for businesses and houses, as it enables them to recoup the losses suffered by them consequent on burglary or house breaking. In addition to the burglary policy, other types of policies giving wider covers have also been devised by the burglary department. The main types of policies are as follows:
