Whether skin disease condition can create confusion while interpreting the indings in an alleged case of sexual assault? Yes, I have encountered a case of minor girl with alleged history of sexual assault. The injuries (7 abrasions) mentioned in examination report were of very small size (pin point). The alleged date of incidence of sexual assault was 10/10/17. The Dermatologist's report dated 18/10/17 mentioned complaint of itching all over the body since 8 days, aggravation on exposure to cold & on examination multiple excoriated discrete papule on bilateral extremities were noted along with single well de ined plaque was present on right buttock. The condition was diagnosed by dermatologist as Allergic contact dermatitis with T. Corporis. These dermatologist's indings were corroborating with the indings of forensic examination dated 10/10/17. Presence of this corroboration suggested that the scratches mentioned in the forensic examination report could be possibly due to her disease condition. Based upon absence of genital injuries, absence of any other physical injuries & FSL report negative for presence of semen/spermatozoa, it could be concluded that there were no signs suggestive of penetration of vagina/anus or sexual assault.
