A Mexican prosecutor says an anti-technology group is responsible for a package bomb that injured two university professors.
Prosecutor Alfredo Castillo says a group calling itself Individuals Tending to Savagery had signed a partially destroyed note found at the scene.
Castillo said Tuesday the group opposes experiments with nanotechnology, and has staged attacks on academics before.
One of the two professors who suffered non life-threatening injuries in the blast was involved in robotics research.
The package caused a small explosion at the Monterrey Technological Institute's campus in the State of Mexico on the outskirts of Mexico City Monday. Castillo is attorney general of Mexico State.
An unexploded artifact was also found at the installations of the IPN in Mexico City this afternoon.
A statement released by the group in the internet said that "the attacks were in protest against the impulse and develop of the nanotechnology and computer sciences, and their effects and consequences, that in a future might create a race of cyborgs that will get out of control and slave the human race".
