Cancun - The bodies of nine people, including three Mexican police, have been found in different parts of the Mexican resort city of Cancun, officials said on Thursday.

All were shot in the head or body - one of the dead was handcuffed - and police believe they could have been the victims of drug gangs.

The bodies of three Federal Investigation Agency police, a jeweller and another man were found in a wood near Cancun airport, said Quintana Roo state prosecutor Luis Alfonso Chi Paredes.

The four other dead were found in a burned-out car on waste ground seven kilometres from where the first group were murdered.

The authorities confirmed that the three police officers were on an undercover drug mission in Cancun.

The 9mm bullets found at the scene of the crime are the same as those used by known drug gangs.

The bodies of three people were found on a nearby main road from Cancun to the city of Merida on Monday.
