TEGUCIGALPA, July 26 (Xinhua) -- A fragmentation grenade exploded on Sunday in a building in the capital city, shortly after a pro-Zelaya meeting there. No casualties were reported.
The device went off inside a bathroom in the building of the Beverage Industry Workers Union just after a meeting of the National Front for Resistance Against the Coup, a group opposes the June 28 ouster of President Manuel Zelaya by the military.
Damage to the building was reported.
Juan Barahona, the group leader, said the group would not be scared by any form of intimidation and vowed to continue its fight against the coup leaders.
"The only responsible ones are the police. That bomb was to scare the people not to fight against the coup leaders," Barahona said.
Also on Sunday, some 3,000 people gathered in front of the building and marched to El Durazno cemetery in the north of the city, where a Zelaya supporter was buried. He was killed Saturday by soldiers on the border with Nicaragua.
Zelaya is currently camping on the border with Nicaragua, from where he made a brief entry into Honduras on Friday.
Thousands of Zelaya's supporters gathered on the border waiting to escort him to Honduras' capital, while the post-coup regime set up some 20 police checkpoints there.
Since the coup, there have been three bomb explosions in Honduras. Two more were found and defused.
