( dpa ) - Police found two human heads near the Mexican capital's airport on Monday, one month after a similarly gruesome discovery where the victims were workers at the airport's customs area.

The two male heads, placed inside plastic bags, were found in the early hours of Monday by someone who was walking a dog in the Penon de los Banos neighbourhood, in north-eastern Mexico City.

Authorities had yet to identify the victims and were investigating whether the deaths were related to the others that happened in December. At that time, two heads and four headless bodies were found in Mexico City and its suburbs.

At least one of last year's victims was found to work for the customs firm Jet Service in the nearby airport, where 12 tonnes of ephedrine - used in the manufacture of synthetic drugs - were confiscated last year. Another victim worked as a freight-lifter at the airport. dpa as vs cc
