Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 10
Abstract
Strangulation of the person under the influence of alcohol is one of the commonest method of Homicide may be because the person under the influence of alcohol shows minimum resistance for the act. We present one such case where the deceased was strangulated to death that was under the influence of alcohol. Even the Investigating officer had no idea about ligature strangulation. They gave history of heavy alcohol consumption and fall. But on keen post-mortem examination it was concluded that death is due to homicidal strangulation. Hence the role of forensic expert is of paramount importance to bring culprits to justice
