N2  - Suicide is a potential threat to our society at present. Young aged boys and girls are most common victims of suicide. Social, economic factors play major role in commission of suicide. People may attempt suicide adopting various means like hanging, burning, poisoning etc. Sometimes multiple methods are adopted at a time. In this case we will discuss such a case where a young aged male person committed suicide using various means. The victim cut his throat at two places and also anterior aspects of both the forearms at a time. Hesitation cut marks were present over neck and right forearm. Presence of poison in the stomach was incidental finding. A painful death was the ultimate fate of the life reflecting an intense depressive state of the mind resulting from long term unemployment. Our goal is to make the society aware so that similar incidences can be prevented to some extent in future by proper precautionary measure and counselling.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
