Abstract
The suggestion that euthanasia should be authorized by law, to a considerable extent raises some plausible moral, ethical, philosophical, and religious issues as well as legal and constitutional questions. In addition, the euthanasia debate has been fueled by a number of social and legal developments. These include the advent of modern medical technology and the availability and use of artificial measure to prolong life. Therefore, this study will examine and analyze all the factors to provide a deeper and more uniform insight into mercy killing, in conjunction with the Ugandan legal system and constitutional dispensation.
