10. December 3, 1984, 40 tonnes of a deadly toxic gas
called methyl isocyanate leaked from a pesticide plant
in Bhopal.
Twenty seven years later, the Supreme Court is all set
to pronounce its verdict on who is responsible.
The fatal gas leak claimed around 3,500 lives,
according to government estimates, while rights
activists have claimed that 25,000 people have died
so far.
In the trial of one of the world's most horrific
industrial disasters, a total of 178 prosecution
witnesses were examined and 3,008 documents were
produced, while eight defence witnesses deposed in
the court.

The core issue here is the safety of factories and the factory
workers. The factory which was gutted in the accident flouted
all safety norms including the number of persons allowed to
work at one time.
