TY - JOUR PY - 1993// TI - Physical restraints and gagging in unnatural death JO - Archiv für Kriminologie A1 - Grellner, W. A1 - Madea, Burkhard SP - 17 EP - 26 VL - 192 IS - 1-2 N2 - Practices of binding and gagging can be found in different types of unnatural death; three case reports concerning fatal autoeroticism, suicide and homicide are presented. In such cases investigations are usually concentrated on the question whether binding and gagging could be carried out by the persons themselves. Loosely bound final loops, especially of the hands, missing local haemorrhages and the discovery of binding instructions support the assumption of self-binding. Accompanying injuries and the entire situation must be taken into special consideration.
