Abstract

In cases of criminal assault, the medical report should be exhaustive and detailed enough to provide the basis for classification by legal authorities. However, the examining physician should make it explicitly clear to the victim that the examination is entirely voluntary. The Council of Medical Jurisprudence, the highest medicolegal authority, provides public authorities with scientific forensic expertise in cases involving individual legal rights.
