We recently published an article about assisted suicide in Switzerland and how the situation is evolving.

According to confidential documents, a trained nurse accompanied around 160 people in one year through assisted suicide, sometimes up to three per day. He charged about CHF 1,000 per person, plus additional expenses, and earned up to CHF 20,000 per month at peak times.

In Switzerland, assisted suicide is legal, but it becomes illegal if it is carried out for «selfish motives» (e.g. financial gain).

The case raises legal and ethical questions, especially as new organizations are emerging and «suicide tourism» continues to grow.

What do you think? Should assisted suicide in Switzerland be more strictly regulated, or is the current legal framework sufficient?
