Tainted coke trickles into market, insider reveals
A Coca-Cola plant in north China's Shanxi Province allegedly mixed disinfectant in nine batches of coke and sold part of them to the market, a whistleblower claimed.
An anonymous employee at the Coca-Cola plant told China National Radio that large amounts of chlorine was found in the water for making coke on February 8 and the production was halted as a result.
The employee said the plant used disinfectant to clean newly replaced pipelines on February 3 and the chemical was detected in the water on the production line in following days, CNR reported today.
After the incident, nine batches of coke, around 120,000 boxes and worth about 5 million yuan (US$791,800), were temporarily withdrawn from distribution, the report said.
However, the problem coke was later sold to markets in Shanxi, according to the whistleblower.
"Our products are safe. We have the test report from the Shanxi Provincial Bureau of Quality and Technical Supervision," Gao Xufeng, a Coca-Cola executive, told the CNR.
But the test didn't look for traces of chlorine, Liu Xianping, a bureau official, told CNR.
