Left wing extremists, Naxalites of the People’s War Group (PWG), blasted a bottling unit of American soft drink company Coca Cola, at Atmakaru in Guntur district, on October 21. According to official sources no one was injured in the incident but the blast caused extensive damage to the unit. The total loss is estimated at Rs one crore. The Naxalites used three steel cans filled with explosives to destroy a boiler and the transformer room of the factory. A fourth can filled with explosives failed to explode. Had this too gone off, the bottling unit of the factory would have been destroyed. The attack came on the eve of the State-wide strike called by the PWG on October 22 to protest US-led military operations in Afghanistan. The Naxalites reportedly left a note behind which said the move was in protest against the ‘imperialistic actions’ of the US in attacking Afghanistan. The Naxalites branded the US as the ‘real terrorist’ and warned that there would be more attacks against multinational companies in the days ahead.
