Quote:
Tony Nicklinson, the “locked-in” syndrome sufferer who challenged Britain’s laws on the right to die has passed away, his lawyers said.
Tony Nicklinson's death comes just days after he lost his High Court battle for an assisted suicide warning that he had been condemned to a life he said was worse than death.
In a short statement, his solicitors at the law firm Bindmans, said only that he had passed away at 10am this morning.
It was known that his health had deteriorated in recent weeks but the cause of his death has not been confirmed independently.
Further details will be released at a London press conference shortly.
