A litigant in Spain who had been left a quadriplegic after an exchange of gunfire with police officers, was subjected to euthanasiaas the request he had submitted was accepted, in order to “save himself from the unbearable pain”, as he said.
According to Reuters, Spanish courts gave the green light for euthanasia to the 46-year-old Eugene Sambau, after rejecting several appeals by his victims, who insisted he should be brought to justice for his crimes. In fact, the case reached the Supreme Court, but it refused to examine it, on the grounds that no fundamental rights were violated.
According to what has become known, the 46-year-old was disgruntled former security guard and shot three of his colleagues -among them a woman- inside the security company where he worked, in the city of Tarragona. Then, in his attempt to escape, he injured a policeman.
When he barged into a house, carrying an entire arsenal, police officers burst in and immobilized him, shooting him several times. The “Pistolero de Tarragona”, as the Spanish media called him, was left a quadriplegic. Doctors were forced to amputate one of his legs while his wounds caused him chronic pain that could not be treated with painkillers and made his life unbearable, he claimed.
