Warren Anderson, chairman of the Union Carbide Corporation when a gas leak from its Bhopal plant killed over 3,700 people in December 1984, died at a hospital near his home in Florida more than a month ago.
Word of his death filtered out early Friday and was received with regret in Bhopal by families of the victims and those fighting on their behalf for compensation and rehabilitation. The New York Times reported that Anderson died on September 29 but it was not announced by his family. He was 92.
