ABSTRACT
Owing to climatic conditions in tropical countries like ours, decomposition of bodies takes place rapidly, especially in hot and rainy seasons. It is very essential to make as thorough an examination as practicable, even in decomposed bodies, in order to find out the cause of death and manner of death, especially in a case where there is suspicion of foul play. When a dead body is recovered from sewer drainage in the stage of decomposition, the police are in dilemma about its cause of death and manner of death and the relatives are also having speculations about the cause of death of their near and dear ones. The case presented in this paper illustrates the importance of a thorough post-mortem examination and not just relying on the information furnished by the police. The authors stress that a thorough and meticulous examination of the body is the need of hour and if done meticulously, it pays.
