Sudden Natural Death means death occurring within 24 hours after the onset of symptoms due to natural cause (Disease, Old age). Its unexpectedness is important than the duration of illness. Such deaths may come to light either by- found dead, brought dead to hospital, or died in the presence of some people. Sometimes these deaths appear to be suspicious and needs to be investigated. And these Sudden Natural Deaths constitute about 10% of all the Natural Deaths.
Death during sexual intercourse is one component which constitutes about 0.6% to 0.7% of all the Sudden Natural Deaths. In this particular case, the death of newly married husband is discussed.
