A DOCTOR took his own life by taking a poison he ordered online from Malaysia, which Border Force officers were reportedly powerless to prevent being sent on to him.
Oldham-born Dr Jonathan Shaw, who lived in Didsbury and was 55, was found dead at an address in Oldham on December 2, 2023.
A coroner ruled after an inquest that Dr Shaw took his own life 'against a background of a mixed anxiety and depressive disorder' through 'the intentional ingestion of a poisonous substance which he had procured through an online purchase from a supplier in Malaysia'.
