abstract="It is becoming common to get cases of suicides by personals working in services like army, CISF, CRPF and police officers using their service weapons like rifile, revolver, and pistol because of their unhealthy working conditions, and frustrations in the department due to long working hours with less remuneration, denial of personal leaves and pressure by senior officers. Here is a case where a constable Mr. X has shot his senior officer Mr. Y in a police station using a rifile 303, while Mr. X was in the centri duty. Mr. X and Mr. Y had joined the service in a same cadre i.e. constable at the same time. Later Mr. Y had passed the departmental exam and had been promoted to sub inspector cadre. Being senior officer Mr. Y used to command Mr. X and also assigning duties including centri duty. Few occasions Mr. Y has denied leaves to Mr. X even though reason was genuine. Mr. X was frustrated and on the day of incidence there was arguments between Mr. X and Mr. Y which ended by firing three rounds in a rifile by Mr. X to Mr. Y inside a police station. One among the injury was atypical i.e. ricochet wound with laceration. Visit to the scene of incidence helped to reconstruct the event. © 2015 South India Medico-Legal Association.
