LIMAPERU: Shining Path rebels exploded more bombs in a pre-election wave of violence Nov.17 damaging five banks a gas station and a police station. They threatened to kill commuters who go to work.
The third consecutive day of attacks appeared aimed at frustrating elections Sunday for an assembly to replace the Congress that President Alberto Fujimori dissolved in April.
The violence also demonstrated that radical Marxists of Shining Path are prepared to continue the insurgency despite the September capture of their leader Abimael Guzman.
