owns union carbide refuses to clean up the factory premises where dozens of toxic waste are still slowly going terminating the city's soil and water a study last year found the poison has seeped into nearby homes we found very very high levels of toxins we found high levels of mercury we found high levels of pesticides which the company had manufactured lying still in the sludge more we foundered three kilometers down stream and we checked the groundwater we found in it now clearly this is unacceptable and there is no way that dow chemical stricken argued that it is not just. danceable for this the indian government has agreed to pay more compensation to victims of the gas tragedy but the protests show no sign of letting up activists want the government to bring former union carbide boss was an anderson to justice attempts by indian governments to extradite him from the us have so far failed. the job is ninety years old but like many of the half a million people affected by the gas leak she suffers from cancer and finds it difficult to breed she wants to see anderson brought to justice.
