A fatal case of fatal homicidal poisoning though parenteral route is reported. A thirty years young male was injected Anda Potash (Potassium Cyanide) using surgical syringe and needle over rt. side back. He was immediately shifted to a tertiary care teaching hospital, where he was declared brought in dead. Medico-legal autopsy findings corroborated with the alleged history. The toxicological analysis of viscera and blood confirmed poisoning by Potassium Cyanide. The case is reported for its rarity, as it is probably the first case of homicide where Potassium Cyanide has been used through intramuscular route?
