if thrown dead it may take fifteen minutes to 2 hour to float.
but if thrown alive then in what condition? whether her hands and mouth were tied ? or hands were only tied.
whether she was injured or not, if injured then what was his nature of injury?
it depends ,and in every case the time varies.
mind you the actual time of death is determined after observing the condition of rigor mortis.
