Hungary hit with toxic spill, but whos to blame?

The CEO of the Hungarian company that was responsible for the huge toxic spill believes that he is not to blame.  Zoltan Bakonyi is the chief executive of the MAL aluminum plant.  He believes that problems that lead to this spill have been present for 25 years and that he has only been in his position for 2 years.  He will however take place in aid efforts.  Bakonyi also stated that the company had been in compliance with all Hungarian safety regulations.  He denies that idea that overproduction and improper payment of the workers had anything to do with this situation.  Since the spill 9 people have died and over 100 people have been injured.  The spill is now in the Danube and we can only hope that the damage is less than expected.
