Euthanasia

Euthanasia that also goes by the term “mercy killing” is defined as the act of ending ones life purposely in order to relieve him/her of the suffering. There are three types of euthanasia: Voluntary Euthanasia: Patient’s consent or wishes are involved Non-voluntary Euthanasia: Without the patient’s wishes, when the consent is not available. Involuntary Euthanasia: Against the patient’s consent or without asking the patient. This is considered illegal. Euthanasia has been the subject of controversy for a long time in terms of moral, legal and ethical issues. Euthanasia is considered as an illegal practice in most of the countries but still in some countries it is legalised like Belgium, Switzerland and Canada.
