Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 4

Abstract

Self-Inflicted or Fabricated injuries are a major problem which the doctors are facing during their duty. No authentic criteria has been so far devised to level an injury as fabricated one. Out of total 1056 cases of assault resulting in mechanical injuries which were examined in Govt. Medical College, Amritsar, Punjab 156 cases were diagnosed as being fabricated injuries sustained to support false charges of assault. In the present study an attempt has been made to collect the various parameters of fabricated-injuries which may be quite helpful to the doctors, lawyers, judiciary and other law enforcing agencies.
