ritualistic and political suicide method From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Self-immolation is the act where a person sets themself on fire. It is usually done for political or religious reasons. It is often used as an extreme form of protest or in acts of martyrdom.
The act of "setting oneself on fire, especially as a form of protest" was first recorded in Lady Morgan's France (1817).[1][2]
