Euthanasia
The article "The case of Euthanasia: right to die -- justice done or justice denied?" published on 11 July, 2004 in Law and Our Rights page of The Daily Star deals with an important medical and legal issue. Thanks for publishing the article. The article is precise and well informed but we are expecting more information about the medical conditions and diseases where euthanasia is justified.
I do believe many of our fellow people are thinking seriously about euthanasia and there is an urgency for setting a common platform to express our ideas and views. How can we ignore the terrible and incurable sufferings of patients having terminal diseases like cancer and some rare neurological disorders. It is high time to create awareness and to raise public opinion about the matter.
The coordination of medical and legal experts is required for addressing the issue properly. Would you please take necessary measures so that an organisational body may be formed in future either at national or local level?
