There should be no reason to get a urine sample for self from someone else. But one does encounter such reasons time and again.
I remember my student days. Someone had recruited us as volunteers for a clinical trial of some oral tablets. As a part of the investigations after the medication, we were asked to submit our urine samples. One of my friends did not want to submit his sample. Perhaps he had not taken the tablets. Perhaps he could not produce a sample in the lab because of some reason. He came out of the rest room with the urine bottle containing what looked like tap water. Though he claimed it was his urine, I believe to date that it was tap water supplied by the civic body, or very little urine plus a lot of tap water. Or perhaps he borrowed a little urine from someone else's bottle and added a generous portion of water to it.
Our Associate Professor told us of a crime TV serial, in which a guy in a campus used to sell his urine samples to other guys for drug testing, he alone being non user of the drug.
One of the resident doctors told us a story the other day. She had asked a patient in the ward to get her urine sample for microbiologic study. She had explained the procedure in detail, including thorough cleaning of the local parts first, and catching the middle of the stream of urine in the culture bottle. After some time an old woman arrived with the urine bottle containing some urine. She was the mother in law of the patient. "My daughter in law is sleeping. So I brought my own urine sample instead" she explained.
(Note: I am sure that resident doctor will write this story herself somewhere some time. I acknowledge her for the story, and maintain that the copyright of that story will be hers.)
