Estimation of time since death especially in a putrefied body is one of the common problems faced by the forensic experts. Unfortunately, it is also one of the most difficult issues to resolve throughout the world. Lack of proper and systemic examination of each and every part of the body can lead to the wrong estimation of time since death. Generally, it is believed that decomposition to skeleton remains may occur in less than six weeks in moderate summer and in less than two months in winter conditions in a tropical country like India. But on certain occasions, moderate to severe scavenging activity by insects or animals may hasten the process of skeletonization to even less than 24 to 48 hours period. Here, we are going to discuss a postmortem case of a mutilated skeletonized body in multiple pieces which was being referred to us from a nearby city and later on which was proved to be a tricky one mainly for ascertaining the time since death. Hopefully, this case will enlighten you that how a detailed/ scrupulous autopsy could solve the uncertainty principle of estimating post mortem interval.Keywords

Due to some condition we cannot measure physical stature of individual; in those cases we can measure a body part to estimate stature. This study determines that from arm span length we can reliably estimate stature. The cross sectional study of 145 individuals (80 males and 65 females) to find the relation between percutaneous arm span length and stature along with multiplication factor to reconstruct the stature. The correlation coefficient between height and arm span length was found to be positive. Regression equations between height and arm span length were derived from obtained data. Stature can be reliably estimated from the arm span length.Keywords
