According to this article, suicide is NOT a crime! I wasn't aware of it. Is it really true? I have always held the view that it is really stupid to punish a person who tries to kill himself, partly because you can punish him only if he fails to commit the crime, and partly because it's his choice whether he wants to live or not, but most importantly because it is really inhuman to add to the miseries of a person who was already so much in the pits that dying seemed the only respite, but I didn't know the judiciary subscribed to this view too.
