To be questioned intensely.
文化的背景
The 'torchio' is a symbol of rural life, making this a very 'Italian' idiom. Italian journalists are known for being very direct, hence the frequent use of this phrase. In court, lawyers use 'interrogatorio' but the public uses 'sotto torchio'. Modern Italian offices use this to describe stressful reviews.
