The suicide forum is subject to the first of the first of ofcom, BBC understands

A suicide forum understands the BBC by the UK’s online regulator – first using new forces within the scope of the online security.

BBC News is coming after a report about forum for three years, It connects at least 50 deaths in the UK.

The site has tens of thousands of members, including children, and users discuss suicide methods and share instructions on how to buy and use a potentially fatal toxic chemical.

Last month, Ofcom won the authority to take action against sites hosting illegal materials.

This first investigation may lead to fines or court orders against those who manage the forum.

After contacting the site, the families who bought their loved ones welcomed the movement, but he called off Offom as quickly as possible.

Vlad Nikolin-Caisley of Southampton died in May 17 in May last year.

He has evidence that his family is his He was encouraged to take his own life by coaching and members on the site, which we do not name.

He took a poisonous chemical and followed instructions on how to finish his life.

His family called Anna and Graham to ban the site to save life.

“We say at what point it was, because these young people didn’t deserve to die, Anna says Anna. Graham, “the sooner we take action, the faster we stop the deaths in connection with this forum,” Graham accepts Graham

The online security law was the law in October 2023, and the last 18 months of the last 18 months have prepared instructions and rules of application for the monitoring of platforms.

On March 17, Ofcom had the authority to take action against sites hosting illegal content that helped suicide.

All websites will now have to show that they have systems to remove illegal material.

If they cannot do this, the court may receive orders to block regulatory platforms or to give up to £ 18 million.

The investigation is the first step before any execution action.

However, Ofcom faces a number of obstacles, including the anonymous of the managers of this forum and the hosting in the United States.

BBC News has demonstrated how more than 50 UK suicide was connected to the forum.

In October 2023, the BBC confronted Lamarcus Small, an American man who was believed to have prepared the site in 2018. And in March last year. We also watched a poison seller connected to the site in Ukraine.

The BBC also participated in the forum using a false identity, compiled a list of the dead, and revealed a common part where members could find someone to die.

Catherine Adalenan and her bride Melanie Saville have been campaigning to close the site since Joe’s son Joe’s life in April 2020.

He was a member of the forum for less than a week, but he learned how to buy and use a 23 -year -old toxic chemical.

He left a note for his mother: “Please do this best to close this website for others.”

Together they infiltrated the site, documented the number of deaths associated with it, and identified people selling chemicals.

The ministers lobbying local deputies and they speak with the media in an effort to close the forum. They say it’s tiring for five years.

Melanie says: “There are new people who register on the website every day. There are people who die, ordered online poison.”

When asked about OCOM’s investigation, “They know long enough for this site and what is going on. They don’t have to go through long processes to download it. Now they need to take action.”

The BBC News also announced that it has also written at least six coronians in the government departments that have requested action to close the forum since 2019.

We learned a series of police force and the national criminal agency is aware of the forum and we searched for deaths.

Vlad’s parents, Anna and Graham, say that the inertia of the authorities costs the life of their sons.

“If he had taken action before, our son would have been on his computer on his computer. But now we’re here and he’s not,” Graham says.
