 Rakesh Kapoor told the company's annual shareholders meeting in
London that he "profoundly regrets" the situation and is "personally
very sorry".
A handful of demonstrators stood outside the meeting, protesting
over its handling of the situation in South Korea where it is
thought that 92 people died from causes related to humidifier
sterilizer products made by a number of companies, including Oxy
Reckitt Benckiser.
The group included a man who said his young son died after using the
sterilizers.
Kapoor said he would meet on Friday with representatives of the
victims who had traveled to London.
