In cases before U.S. Federal District Court in Florida, the Colombian union SINALTRAINAL and other organizations accuse the Coca-Cola company and its bottling plants in Colombia of complicity with right-wing paramilitaries, which are claimed to have systematically intimidated and murdered union members in bottling plants. SINALTRAINAL calls on the Coca-Cola company to acknowledge the facts and publicly distance itself from the paramilitaries and acts of violence, and to compensate the victims appropriately.
