Coroners
investigate violent and unnatural deaths or sudden deaths where the
cause is unknown. Deaths may (2) be reported (1) to the local coroner (who is
either medically or legally qualified, or both) by doctors, the police,
the registrar, various public authorities or members of the public. If
the death is sudden and the causeunknown, the coroner need (2) not hold an
inquest if, after a post-mortem examination has been made (1), he or she is
satisfied that the death was due to natural causes. Where there is
reason to believe that the deceased died a violent or unnatural death or
died in prison or in other specified circumstances, the coroner must (2)
hold an inquest and it is the duty of the coroner’s court to establish
how, when and where the deceased died. A coroner may sit alone, or in
certain circumstances, with a jury. In Scotland the local procurator
fiscal inquires privately into all sudden and suspicious deaths and may
report the findings to the Crown Office. In a minority of cases a fatal
accident inquiry may (2) be held (1) before the sheriff. For certain categories
(such as deaths in custody) a fatal accident inquiry is mandatory. In
addition, the Lord Advocate has discretion to instruct an inquiry in the
public interest in cases where the circumstances give rise to public
concern.
