<![CDATA[One of the places that is often targeted by thieves is in a villa. In Article 363 paragraph (1) 3 of the Criminal Code, there is a regulation related to theft with a aggravating if the theft is carried out at night in a house or closed yard where the house is, but there is no provision that explicitly states that it is related to theft in a villa.
