abstract="Suicide pacts are exceptional cases. We present a simultaneous suicide of two 46 year-old monozygotic twins run over by a train. Both twins experienced psychiatric anxiety-depressive disorders that required involuntary hospitalization after suicidal tentative. Previous alcohol intake was also detected. They both meticulously planned their dyadic death and went near a railway station where they remained in the train trajectory, hugging each other, before the convoy arrived. Necroscopic analysis showed the typical injuries of this type of suicide as well as a considerable presence of ethanol in blood. The context of the case, the result of the psychological autopsy and the presence of coincident medical records-psychiatric ones included-are presented, while current bibliography is revised. © 2013 AsociaciÓn Nacional de Médicos Forenses.
