A small bomb partially destroyed a bronze bust of iconic guerrilla Ernesto "Che" Guevara on the ground floor of a labor federation in the west-central Bolivian city of Oruro. Thursday afternoon's blast came three days before elections for a Constituent Assembly the new Socialist government hopes will write a leftist charter for the Andean nation, and two weeks after President Evo Morales joined with the late rebel's son to commemorate his birthday in the village where he was summarily executed by Bolivian forces in 1967.Unionists in Oruro blamed the attack on unidentified "rightist terrorists" they claimed were seeking to disrupt Sunday's elections.
