Abstract

Incised looking penetrating wounds of front of abdomen are always very confusing. It is easy to tell the cause of death in these cases but extremely difficult to elicit the manner of death i.e. whether caused by himself or by someone else, especially in the cases where the suicide note is not found and there is absence of hesitation wounds.
