Rome prosecutors on Monday blocked an
Internet site that hosted a community created to help young
people to kill themselves following a probe into the recent
suicides of two Italian teenagers.
The community on the Sanctioned Suicide site had 17,000 members
from all over the world.
Some of those members provided information about how to take
one's life by swallowing substances containing potassium
nitrate.
The two Roman teens died in February this year and in December
2020 after taking in a mix of toxic substances.
In a chat linked to the community, the two teens were told to
"eat and chocolate and take an anti-vomit medicine" after
swallowing the toxic substances so that they did not throw it
up.
