Justifiable defense (2025)

Other name: Justifiable Defence , Zheng Dang Fang Wei , 正當防衛

Description:

"Justifiable Defense" delves into a gripping legal drama where senior prosecutor Duan Hong Shan tackles a challenging case: a woman is accused of killing her husband following prolonged domestic violence. Young prosecutor Fang Ling Yuan from the provincial office is assigned to assist, bringing a fresh perspective to the investigation.

As they meticulously examine the evidence and testimonies, an astonishing connection emerges. The current domestic violence murder case is intrinsically linked to a controversial "excessive self-defense on campus" incident that Duan Hong Shan himself handled fourteen years prior, involving Li Mu Feng, Mei Zheng, and Jiang Ting. This revelation forces both prosecutors to confront echoes from the past. Guided by facts, the law, and a profound consideration for natural justice and human sentiment, the two prosecutors navigate complex legal and emotional landscapes. Their ultimate goal is to deliver a definitive resolution that not only upholds national law but also deeply resonates with the true meaning of justifiable defense.
