Coca-Cola Shanxi Beverages Co. Ltd. on Friday announced the resignation of its general manager and the suspension of several employees after admitting that traces of chlorine were found in some of its drinks, Xinhua reported.

The company also made a public apology and said it has taken active corrective measures as the chlorine was mistakenly added during a routine pipe maintenance procedure.

David G. Brooks, president of Coca-Cola Greater China and Korea said consumers who have bought the suspect drinks could exchange them for new ones or ask for a refund.
