Is it legal to buy Nembutal in Australia? – Peaceful Euthanasia Directory
Peaceful Euthanasia Directory will be looking at the question “Is it legal to buy Nembutal in Australia?” It is illegal to buy, import or possess Nembutal in Australia without a prescription. The drug is highly scrutinized due to its use in voluntary euthanasia and assisted suicide. Even in areas like Switzerland and the Northern Territory of Australia where assisted suicide has been decriminalized, it is still illegal to possess the drug.
The decriminalization of assisted suicide in 1942 and the Northern Territory (NT) of Australia enacted the Rights of the Terminally Ill Act in 1996, the global legal situation on end of life choices has experienced significant change. However drugs like Nembutal which are essential for assisted suicide are still not being made available to those who need it.
This is why many have turned to online sources and shady drug dealers to buy Nembutal. The result is most of them end up getting scammed and lose a lot of money in the process.
Nembutal and Right to die laws in Australia
Almost every territory in Australia have access to Voluntary Assisted Dying (VAD) with the only exception being the Northern Territory. However having access to VAD doesn’t mean having access to Nembutal or make its possession legal. In fact the laws on Nembutal have even become tighter with many demanding access to the drug.
Those who have been cleared by the board for assisted suicide have to use other means or buy Nembutal online. The process is a very lengthy and stressful one. This has led many to take matters into their own hands.
How people buy Nembutal in Australia
Possession of Nembutal is considered illegal in Australia but those who need it do not care. No one has ever been locked up for possessing Nembutal. Over the years, a few packages have been intercepted at courier offices. Homes ransacked by the police but those who were caught simply paid a small fine.
Most of the people looking to buy Nembutal are old, can’t be locked up in a prison hence simply do not care about the laws regarding the drug. They keep on searching for online vendors and buy the drug anyway.
With Nembutal becoming increasingly difficult to buy online, some travel to Mexico, Peru, Chile and Thailand just to buy the drug. After buying the drug, they travel back to Australia with it. This is considered one of the safest ways of buying Nembutal for assisted suicide.
