Suicide robbed us of justice, says family
Early yesterday morning, ex-soldier Pierre Chanal bled himself to death using a minimum pain commando technique he was taught in the army. He used a tiny blade from a disposable razor to slice open the arteries of both thighs. Before doing so he applied two makeshift tourniquets to reduce his suffering to a minimum.
Chanal concealed the suicide by covering his legs with a bed blanket despite being watched by officers through a glass screen.
