et en polonais? comment traduire "vol aggravé"?
Ellen Kraus Jul 1, 2008:
"callous" I would only use if the burglar used extreme physical violence and/or killed someone on that occasion. It means deprived of compassion. >Unscrupulous" is more to my liking. Whatever you opt for : good luck!
Nadia Stephanov (asker) Jul 1, 2008:
Ellen, I feel this is too long and not enough "idiomatic" (as it regards usual legal proceedings, it needs usual legalese), and I prefer your first suggestion, "burglary".

What about the term "callous burglary"? It sounds good but is it good enough for a Judge?
Ellen Kraus Jul 1, 2008:
just discovered your latest éclaircissements. I have googled and came to the conclusion that the word you are looking for can best be translated by "grand larceny with break-in" (or large scale larceny) Robbing a bank e.g. is termed grand larceny
Nadia Stephanov (asker) Jul 1, 2008:
quelques éclaircissements... Il s'agit d'un "casse" avec une "voiture bélier" - donc le vol est important (des millions) et il y a eu effraction.

burglary (breaking and entering) see below

burglary (is forceful entering combined with theft, i.e. two offences at the same time (in German: Einbruchsdiebstahl). Maybe the French term vol aggravé is the equivalent counterpart. Besides, on top of the page you translate vol by burglary; The vol is aggravated by the fact that there is committed an additional offence, i.e. forceful breaking and entering. so it´s very likely that I am not mistaken after all.
