abstract="Suicidal deaths due to hanging are documented worldwide as a popular means of suicide and makes the majority of asphyxial deaths. Keeping this in mind, majority of times we proceed every case of hanging like a normal suicidal asphyxial death but very rarely we can find an incidental finding of additional suicidal mode like poisoning as seen in our case. A case of middle aged man with alleged history of suicidal hanging was found with internal visceral findings of poisoning consistent with that of Hydrochloric acid ingestion (confirmed on visceral report). An important message to all forensic experts to carry out an autopsy in meticulous way and don't hesitate to carry or inform about the need of psychological autopsy to the concerned Investigating authorities. © 2021, Medicolegal Association of Maharashtra.
