Section 302 of IPC 1860

Warden Duffy adds in the 187th Law Commission of India Report (2003) that the experience of execution for a prisoner is harrowing because there are times when his neck is not broken but strangles to death. The eye pops out of his head; tongue swells and protrudes from his mouth, neck prolly broken and the rope takes the large portion from his skin along with the flesh.
