Does this legal provision need to instill fear in the mind one who wants to attempt to commit suicide, as anyway one who is successful in committing suicide is out of reach to law? share your opinion. Thanks.
no attempt to commit suicede in india is no longer a crime now,it was deleted from their penal codes and its now not a crime as in most countries attempt to commit suicide is not a crime its a mental condition where one need councilation not punishment cause it even increases the risk of suicide attendance
Yes that is true. A citizen belongs to the state, therefore commiting suicide is commiting crime against the state & crime its self is punishable as well as also punishable against the state.
Thanks for the invitation to answer the questionOf course attempted suicide a crime in Islam may not be because God has forbiddenBut there are some legislation and I am with them exempt from the attempted suicide of punishment and that preserved his life once again
In many countries attempted suicide and suicide itself is unlawful. Until the legislature of a state repeals the prohibition, it is the law of the land. In those cases, the issue comes down to whether it is appropriate for Public Authorities i.e The DPP to prosecute the "crime". Is it really an effective use of public resources in prosecuting a crime where, in 9/10 cases the "offender" needs medical assistance i.e a Physiologist?
I think most people would agree it is a waste of public resources and tax payer funds to prosecute these types of "crimes". The funds would better be used in the health system to help those who need it most. But in jurisdictions where these "crimes" exist, it is ultimately up to the director of the prosecuting body to determine whether it is appropriate to use his or her discretion to prosecute the crime.
Simply because it is a crime does not automatically make it appropriate to incarcerate an "offender".
I think it must not be a crime instade a psychological disorder needs to be treated.
it is not a crime. it is a mental problem a person experiences that makes them commit such act.
Euthanasia / Assisted Suicide in South Africa and i believe in most countries are illegal. That is assisting even a terminally ill patient with their death is a crime.
In many places throughout the world, attempting suicide or even following through with the act is considered a crime ,i am agree attempted suicide is crime
Yes I do agree. Life is gift of God and if anybody try to kill himself must be punished. its an act against God and state also.
yes. In the eyes of our God committing suicide is like committing murder to someone else. Its like you murder yourself. It is committing a crime with an intent action.
