I believe the answer is:

arson

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">illegal burning</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for arson that I've seen before include "criminal fire-raising" , "Pyromaniac crime" , "Act of a pyromaniac" , "serious offence" , "Criminal activity" .)

I've seen this clue in the New York Times, the Evening Standard, the USA Today and The Mirror.
