Abstract: The identity of the person is crucial in any crime scene examination. Identification of the deceased is one of the main goals in forensic medicine. It is imperative to confirm the identity of the deceased person before conducting the autopsy. Finding a deceased person's identification becomes difficult if there are no hints or reference materials that may be compared. Some conventional techniques are available to establish the identity of the person in those cases where reference samples are not available. A case from Gwalior, M.P. was examined where an unidentified dead body of a male was found near Gwalior fort. The conventional technique was used in this case for the identification of the deceased hand and the identity was established.
