Wanted: Warren Anderson, former chairman of the Union Carbide Corporation
Anderson was chairman of the Union Carbide Corporation in 1984 when an explosion at its
plant in Bhopal, India, released 40 tons of toxic substances that killed more than 3,000
people and injured 200,000. He has failed to comply with a warrant for his arrest on
charges of "culpable homicide" issued by the Chief Judicial Magistrate of Bhopal
in 1992, and appears to have gone into hiding. Union Carbide refuses to disclose his
whereabouts. Anderson is wanted not only by the Indian authorities, but by plaintiffs who
have been unable to locate him to serve a summons in a civil suit for damages related to
the Bhopal disaster.
