Webmaster Assists in Suicides

There is a huge rise in the type of site offering suicide advice and assistance, these are mainly located in countries that have either no or are neutral to the world’s laws and law enforcement agencies. This makes monitoring these practices almost impossible as the people behind these “Businesses” can literally close up and start up again.

That is how it was, but there are some changes coming as Kazunari Saito who is a 33 year old electrician and suicide website webmaster, has been arrested for helping a 21 year old to die, by giving her sleeping pills and then suffocating her until she was dead. He was paid $1,700 for this service.

This is a very serious matter and should never be in the hands of just anyone who like the idea of it.
