Right-to-die activist Marco Cappato on
Friday reported himself to Carabinieri police in Florence for
having accompanied 44-year-old Italian multiple sclerosis
sufferer named Massimiliano to a Swiss clinic to commit assisted
suicide.
Two other people also reported themselves for the crime of
assisting suicide after going with Massimiliano to Switzerland -
the journalist Chiara Lalli and
Felicetta Maltese of the Eutanasia Legale (Legal Euthanasia)
campaign.
Cappato, the treasurer of right-to-die Coscioni Assocation, is
currently being probed for helping several people die at the
Swiss Dignitas clinic.
He is pushing for parliament to end a legislative vacuum and
pass legislation on end-of-life issues.
