Residents in Zurich were asked on Sunday 04.15.11 to decide whether assisted suicide should be banned, either for Swiss nationals or non-residents.
Some 85% of the 278,000 votes cast opposed the ban on assisted suicide and 78% opposed outlawing it for foreigners, Zurich authorities said.
This referendum was in Zurich only, but is likely to be an indication of the feeling in the whole country. People from many countries go to Zurich for help with self-deliverance, about 150 from Britain.
