Delhi High Court refuses to permit euthanasia of man in vegetative state for 10 years

Rana moved the High Court through his parents seeking directions to constitute a medical board to examine his health condition for administration of euthanasia.

Rana was studying at Punjab University and suffered head injuries after falling from the fourth floor of his paying guest house.

It was stated that he has been confined to his bed since the year 2013 and has not responded in the last 11 years.

He has developed deep and large bed sores which have now caused further infection, it was pointed out.

The Court was told that his parents have lost all hope for his recovery and cannot take care of him as they are getting old.
