HOMICIDE BY A ROAD TRAFFIC ACCIDENT: A CASE REPORT
Journal Title: Journal of Evidence Based Medicine and Healthcare - Year 2015, Vol 2, Issue 15
Abstract
Deaths from road traffic accidents need a meticulous autopsy examination and a proper interpretation of injuries, as they can be a source of potential homicide among them. We report a case of homicide which was brought as a death in a ‘hit and run’ case to our mortuary. After our post mortem examination and issuing of our report, the investigative authorities were able to nab the actual culprit involved in the murder.
