Abstract

Firearms are often used to commit suicide, especially in countries where firearms are easily available. Suicides with multiple gunshot wounds are uncommon, but not rare. The death of a 30-year-old male is presented in the current work, in which the question of suicide was raised. The most remarkable point was the multiplicity of firearm injuries in different body regions. This case highlights the importance of criminal investigations for the confirmation of the manner of death in such cases.
