India reopens Bhopal case
Indian court reopens Bhopal case
| NEW DELHI | India’s highest court on Tuesday reopened the Bhopal gas-leak case in response to a government petition seeking harsher punishment for the former Union Carbide India Ltd. executives who were convicted in June of negligence in the 1984 accident. |
The Indian Supreme Court said it would review its 1996 decision to reduce the charges in the case from culpable homicide to negligence after the Central Bureau of Investigation, India’s federal investigative agency, petitioned the court.</em>
Greed kills 15,000 people and 7 guys get 2 years in prison? Sounds like bullshit to me. The Indian people deserved better than to be poisoned by Union Carbide to begin with…these people should be strung up. Seriously. I’m not a death penalty sorta guy, but some folks should die just as an example and warning to the other greedheads out there.
