A Spanish court said on Monday that he had dismissed the appeal by a father, which tried to stop the euthanasia of his young paraplasic daughter in an unprecedented legal battle.
The 24 -year -old woman was scheduled to go through the process in August last year as her request was supported by the euthanasia board in the Northeast Catalonia region.
The process was suspended at the last minute after the conservative campaign group Abogados Cristianos (“Christian lawyer”) with the support of support with support.
The father argued that his daughter was suffering from mental disorders that could “affect their ability to make an independent and conscious decisions as required by the law”.
He also said that there were indications that his daughter had changed her mind and her illness was not “unbearable physical or psychological pain”.
But on Friday made public in a decision and on Monday, a Barsilona court said that the woman fulfilled the conditions for euthanasia, which was legalized in the European country in 2021.
The judge wrote, “All the professionals who intervened in this process agree that … he is suffering from a serious, chronic and disabled disease, demonstrations without any contradictory tests.”
The woman’s ability to decide on this “most individual” of rights was “proven”, which means that the father could not challenge it, the judge added to his decision.
Abogados Christianos said they would appeal to the decision, accusing the “irregularities” committed by those who had authorized euthanasia that would cause “disability of the entire process”.
Wright celebrated a decision to die with the rights of the campaign group, stating, “Without any interference, without interference, confirms the importance of people’s will and freedom in the final stages of their life”.
After throwing herself from the fifth floor of a building in an attempt to commit suicide of 2022, the woman asked a court in April last year to allow her to exercise her right to die.
His case was the first in Spain for a judge to decide after the 2021 euthanasia law was passed.
