I am sure he took the medicine himself because he wanted a one-way ticket to Moscow (for treatment).

First he wasn't taking his medicine. Then he was forced to take it under supervision and his blood pressure still didn't come down.

I don't think he took his medicines for suicide -- only for his trip to Moscow. When he was in Moscow he would be free. That is where his friends and family are. I think that was his last possibility to escape the Hague.

You should really filter information about diagnosis and treatment through your physician. The Internet can be a treasure-trove of information but you can't accept everything at face value.

The Internet can be an important tool to enhance the practice of medicine. But we must never let technology supersede safety.

The involuntary character of psychiatric treatment is at odds with the spirit and ethics of medicine itself.
