ABC Lateline - Australians Importing illegal Euthanasia Drug (13.09.2013) • A lethal drug promoted by euthanasia campaigners as a peaceful way to die is easily being illegally imported into Australia. • Known as the peaceful pill , barbiturate Nembutal (Pentobarbital Sodium), is promoted by the euthanasia movement as the best and most peaceful way to end your life. • Most have bought the illicit drug online from China, a country that in the last two years has come to dominate the market. The drug kills within an hour of being consumed. • There are very few lethal drugs and the best lethal drug is nembutal, euthanasia advocate Dr Philip Nitschke told a recent workshop. • I've been with a lot of people who have died using this drug, it just seemed to get into to a deeper and deeper sleep and then finally stop breathing. • And for those watching they see this as the most peaceful of deaths, it certainly looks to be. • Be careful, because it's illegal. • The penalty for importing or possessing nembutal is a prison sentence or a fine of up to $825,000. • Dr Nitschke says hundreds of Australians have illegally brought the drug into the country over the past couple of years. • The Australian Federal police have told ABC's Lateline program that since 2007 they have seized almost 15 kilograms of the drug. • But so far, no one has been convicted. • http://www.abc.net.au/news/2013-09-13...
