Regulation 13

Whenever a place liable to search is closed, any person residing in or being in charge of such place shall, on demand of a person executing a search warrant and on production of the warrant, allow him free ingress thereto and afford all reasonable facilities for a search therein.

If ingress to such place cannot be so obtained, the person executing a search warrant may enter such place and search therein, and in order to effect an entrance into such place may break open any outer or inner door or window of the place to be searched if after notification of his authority and purpose and demand of admittance duly made he cannot otherwise obtain admittance.

A person who has entered a place under this regulation may break open any outer or inner door or window of such place in order to liberate himself or any other person who having lawfully entered under this regulation for the purpose of making a search is detained therein if after notification of his authority to any person residing in or being in charge of such place and demand of exit duly made he or such other person cannot otherwise obtain exit.
