Northern Territory Consolidated Acts Northern Territory Consolidated Acts43BB. Duress
(1) A person is not criminally responsible for an offence if the person carries out the conduct constituting the offence under duress.
(2) A person carries out conduct under duress only if the person reasonably believes that:
(a) a threat has been made that will be carried out unless an offence is committed; and
(b) there is no reasonable way that the threat can be rendered ineffective; and
(c) the conduct is a reasonable response to the threat.
(3) However, the person does not carry out conduct under duress if the threat is made by or on behalf of a person with whom the person is voluntarily associating to carry out conduct of the kind actually carried out.
