[Relation between criminal and suicidal behavior].
Results of many psychological, clinical, and epidemiological studies indicate a possible relationship between criminal and suicidal behavior. However, most data supply indirect evidence only and they are by no means conclusive regarding such a relationship. The results of a few well controlled studies, devoted specifically to this issue reveal that there is no real inner relatedness between criminality and completed suicide, even though both behaviours can sometimes occur together, e.g. in connection with alcoholism. It is still not clear whether there is a relationship between criminal and parasuicidal behavior.
