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.”
