"Article 20" is awakened! What should you pay attention to when exercising your right to self-defense? Lawyer Yue Qishan from Beijing Yuecheng Law Firm said that the requirements for legitimate defense include cause conditions, time conditions, object conditions and limit conditions. If the damage is caused, it is legitimate defense and will not bear criminal responsibility.
Counterattack style and intensity should not be too strict. The imminent danger and realistic possibility of causing further damage must be considered. For example, if a thief commits pickpocketing on a bus, we should not use a kitchen knife to seriously injure or kill him.
