Sexual offences constitute the most common and gruesome of crimes against women. The medical findings on general and genital examination of the victim are invariably minimal or absent. However, the need for a meticulous medical examination by the doctor remains, in order not to miss the ‘tell-tale’ findings of sexual abuse that are occasionally present on the face, breasts, arms, thighs and the genitalia. We present here one such case were there were interesting medical findings in the victim consistent and corroborating with the history given.
