/dɪˈfɛns ʌv ˈdʊrɪs/ – Phrase
Definition: biện hộ bằng cớ là bị ép buộc.
A more thorough explanation: The legal term “defence of duress” refers to a defense strategy in which a defendant claims that they were forced to commit a crime due to a threat of imminent harm or death. This defense argues that the defendant’s actions were not voluntary but were a result of being coerced or compelled by another person. The defense of duress can be used to mitigate or excuse criminal liability in certain circumstances.
Example: The defendant argued that his actions were a result of being under duress, and therefore should be considered a valid defense in the case.
