The mother of a 17-year-old boy who died by suicide after he was 'encouraged' to drink poison by members of an online forum, called for stricter police of self-harm.
Anna Nikolin-Caisley's son Vlad died in May last year after taking a poison over which he learned from a 'pro-suicide group'.
There have been countless phone calls to prohibit the group whose membership is in accordance with more than 50,000 users worldwide, although it still remains active in the UK.
The government claims that the new online security law, which will come into effect this year, will result in the wholesalers of illegal suicide and self -harm, but the charity of Samaritans has criticized its implementation by claiming that it is not going far. enough.
In the case of Vlad it was this online forum that saw him able to make a 'suicide kit' with different toxins, pills and other items in the bedroom of his family's Hampshire house.
The tragic incident took place in the early hours of the morning on May 7 last year when Mrs. Nikolin-Caisley was suddenly awakened by her son's screams for a doctor.
After consuming the poison, Vlad's father Graham Caisley said that his son stumbled up before he collapsed in his bedroom floor.
Vlad then suffered several attacks, in which his parents describe the incident as 'violent' and 'suddenly'.

“I can't even start proposing the fear he has gone through,” a deeply sad Mr. Nikolin-Caisley told the BBC.
Dramatic police -Bodycam images also succeeded in catching the chaos when the emergency services arrived on the spot.
Mr. Caisley had performed resuscitation under the instruction of an ambulance operator on the speaker telephone.
In the images the police of Hampshire can be seen on stage and their way up to Vlad's bedroom, where the teenager without a wrist was found.
Vlad, whose parents said they had enjoyed a happy childhood, was undergoing treatment at the time of his death by mental health care after he was diagnosed with autism, depression and fear. He also suffered from a painful neurological disorder.
The 17-year-old family, however, was still shocked to hear that Vlad had shared his 'dark moments' in the online forum that Mrs. Nikolin-Caisley described as a 'pro-suicide cult'.
DS Chris Barrow from the Hampshire police, who investigated Vlad's suicide, said that Vlad without the website would not have been aware of the poison he used to take his own life.
Vlad's older sister Masha has since exchanged messages with the moderators of the sites and thought it was an 'Echo room' that 'people could push over the edge'.
“There is almost clear care,” she added.

According to the BBC, Vlad had ordered Vlad Gif from a Ukrainian seller called Leonid Zakutenko, but that poison did not take.
Instead, the fatal chemical that he used was ordered from Poland and it was wrongly labeled in a clear attempt to mislead customs.
The knowledge of the 17-year-old of these chemicals is almost certain of other members of the self-damage forum, where Mrs. Nikolin-Caisley remains in a state of disbelief about how it can continue to work.
Located in South America, but hosted by an American server, the website is subject to different laws in different areas of law, making the police extremely difficult.
'You have private chats and are led on the path of death. Everyone can come across it. A child can come across it. There are no checks.
“The people who have sold the poison, the people who have encouraged it, how is that legal?” she asked.
“They live, our son is dead,” the Lord Caisley added.
The police investigation into the death of Vlad, to determine whether criminal offenses have been committed, remains underway.
The figures from the Office of National Statistics emphasize the rising suicide rates of the UK. An increase of 10 percent in England and Wales has been registered in the past six years, although poisoning remains a rarely used method.

Speaking of the approaching implementation of the online security law, a government spokesperson said: 'Suicide destroys families. Intentional encouraging suicide or the serious self -harm of another person is illegal.
'Once the Online Safety Act is fully implemented, platforms must remove these illegal suicide and self -harm – content and children prevent harmful suicide -related material – even when it falls under the criminal threshold.
“Companies should not wait for laws to come into effect – they must take effective action to protect all users now.”
Julia Bentley, CEO of Samaritans,, however, criticized the authorities because he is not subject to smaller sites, such as those of Vlad.
“Legal but damaged content must be strictly regulated for both adults and children,” she said, before she encouraged the government and ofcom to act “before being too late.”
Ofcom told the BBC that from July, sites 'duties would have to protect children against harmful self -harm and suicide content, even when it is not illegal'.
“As these tasks come into effect, we can use the full extent of our enforcement powers against any services that do not comply with their duties,” it added.
