Mysterious phone call that let Warren Anderson flee

This is an old bit of mysteriousnessness. In the 80s, in India, Union Carbide plant, accidentally (?) released a bit of poison that ended up killing a few thousand people. Warren Anderson, chairman of the company lands in India, and justly, is promptly arrested.

Not that justice was even really being done at the time, since he was being held under house arrest, at the Carbide guest house, which I imagine isn't terrible.

Anyway, then the chief minister receives a mysterious phone call. Anderson pays a bond, is released and promises to come back to stand trial.

It's what, 2010? Yeah he hasn't gone back yet. Who made that mysterious phone call? What did they say? Mysterious baby.
