ITV News’ Paul Brand reports on how a Swiss assisted dying clinic helped a British woman die without her family knowing. Anne travelled from Wales to the Pegasos clinic near Basel to end her life in secret. She had no known terminal illness, and her family thought she was going on holiday. However, it appears Anne couldn't cope with the death of her son. The first her siblings knew was when they received goodbye letters written by her. Report by Blairm.
