A time-bomb exploded outside the offices of a Greek company in central Athens causing minor damage and no injuries, police said. The attack is the latest in a daily string of violence that has rocked the country since the police shooting of a teenager in December triggered Greece's worst riots in decades fuelled by anger at youth unemployment and economic measures. Time-bomb explodes in Athens "The home-made time bomb went off smashing windows at company offices on the third floor of a building in Athens," said a police official who declined to be named. "The explosion also caused damage to offices on two other floors." There was no one in the building at the time of the explosion, as police had received a warning call and had cordoned-off the busy district of Kolonaki, the official said. No group claimed responsibility for the attack. State TV NET reported the offices belonged to a Greek investment company. Early on Tuesday, two small time-bombs exploded at police stations under construction in Athens and the northern city of Thessaloniki causing only minor damage. Another bomb was neutralised by police. Last week, a powerful bomb wrecked a Greek bank in the outskirts of Athens, damaging nearby cars and blowing out windows across the street but causing no injuries.
