In India, there have been frequent incidents of accidental strangulation due to entangling of drapes used in the traditional attire of females like saree, chunni/dupatta, shawls, stoles, scarf etc during transportation, motorized machinery and instruments at workplace, factories, and home equipment. We report case of a female victim of accidental strangulation when her dupatta got entrapped in the water pump motor used for irrigation purpose in fields. During autopsy unusual postmortem findings were noted after which previous similar reported cases were studied and it was found that there exists a pattern of external and internal injuries in accidental ligature strangulation cases, which is not mentioned in the standard textbooks. The authors also intend to increase the awareness among the Indian population about the care and precautions while wearing these traditional drapes in vicinity of motorized equipment or machinery and bring to the notice of government authorities to frame make stringent safety guidelines like installation of safety guards in motorcycle/rickshaws, motorized farm and factory equipment etc.
