Battering of women has been a major problem in the community since years and irrespective of caste and socio economic status it has been persistent in our society. Most of the women in India experience some of the other form of physical violence from their partners during their married life. Battering of women is one of the most common recognised crimes in India, and most of them are settled within home and rarely they reach to the police station or court. Among these cases the history is misleading which makes detection of such crimes difficult. One such case was brought to mortuary of Sri Aurobindo Medical College and PG Institute, Indore in which history was given by her husband of fall from height. On Post Mortem Examination it emerged out to be the case of wife battering. This raises a big question, as to where else a woman can feel safe if they are not safe in their own home.
