Teacher with no diagnosed illness took his own life at suicide clinic without family’s knowledge

A teacher with no diagnosed illness took his own life at a Swiss suicide clinic without the knowledge of his family. Alastair Hamilton, 47, died by lethal injection at the Pegasos clinic in Basel after telling his parents he was visiting a friend in Paris. His mother Judith, 81, visited the clinic for an ITV documentary after it apologised for failings surrounding the case. She told the broadcaster: “We weren’t given that chance to either be with him or in my case, drag him home, tooth and nail if I had to.” Read more here: #Pegasos #switzerland #basel
