Tony Nicklinson from Melksham, Wiltshire, is asking senior judges to declare that anyone who intervenes to end his life with “dignity” would not be charged with a crime….His lawyer, Saimo Chahal, said, “We are saying there should be a defence to the law of murder and want a declaration that it would be lawful for a doctor to administer a lethal drug to terminate Mr. Nicklinson’s life.”
