Sean Davison Arrested in the UK
On the eve of taking up his new position as head of Pegasos Swiss Association in Switzerland (a fact unknown to Exit), former Exit Swiss program coordinator, Sean Davison, has been arrested at his home in Bournemouth in the UK.
Sean has been charged with assisting with the suicide of a UK woman (name withheld) who he is alleged to have taken to Pegasos at the end of June 2024.
Sean was visited at home by 10 local police who spent 8 hours searching his house. He was taken into custody for 30 hours and has been bailed to appear in October.
Sean’s three passports were reportedly seized, along with that of his Chinese national wife, Raine.
Sean has been prohibited from speaking to any of the more than 80 right to die groups globally.
In April this year, the Exit board made the difficult decision to let Sean go.
Philip Nitschke (director of Exit) said ‘we were pleased to help Sean establish a new life for himself and his family in the UK following his release from home detention for the three murders he was found guilty of in South Africa. We were aware that Sean’s employment prospects were bleak and we wanted to help him find his feet’.
Sean stood down as a director of Exit in January this year. His contract with Exit ended in April.
The parting of ways was announced at the May London Exit workshop.
