St. Maarten Private Eye

I couldn't find the explanatary notes in English (yet?), but in the Dutch one it is mentioned that the article about the 'right of life' comes from the European Convention on Human Rights. See article 2 of this convention
I found a short explanation on www.yourrights.org.uk

The ridiculous and I think irresponsible headline of Today turned out to be quite useful in my googling. I found this article from a university in Belgium.

I didn't read all of it but I think this explains:
"b.) Interpretation of the right to life
In General Comment No. 614, the Human Rights Committee stressed the importance of the protection against arbitrary deprivation of life, by considering that States should take measures not only to prevent and punish deprivation of life by criminal acts but also to prevent arbitrary killings by their own security forces (par. 3). To this end, States should enact laws controlling the circumstances in which a person may be deprived of his life by the authorities."

The way I understand it the constitution does not stand by itself and the right of life article refers to further laws, which must still be written?

But I have no legal background at all, so may be others can explain better.
