CBI had sought dilution of charge against Anderson


Mangalore Today News Network

Bhopal, Jun 17 (PTI):  In the midst of the political storm over the Bhopal gas case verdict, the records of the trial court show that the CBI had sought dilution of the stringent charge against UCC CEO Warren Anderson on the lines of the relief given by the Supreme Court in the case against the Indian accused.


ProtestIn 2002, the CBI had filed an application in the court seeking that the charge under section 304 II of IPC (culpable homicide not amounting to murder) against Anderson be changed to section 304 (A) (causing death by negligence). While 304 II entails a maximum of 10 years imprisonment, 304 provides for two years jail term.


The CBI had moved the CJM’s court six years after the Supreme Court had watered down the charge against seven Indian accused in the case under section 304 II to 304 (a).
