The department also said police found the bodies after receiving an anonymous call and the messages are related to Joaquin Guzman, boss of the Sinaloa drug cartel.
On Saturday, twenty-five corpses where found in different locations in Acapulco, with 15 of them beheaded.
More than 30,000 people have been killed in drug-related violence since the Mexican government launched an iron-fist crackdown on drug gangs four years ago, according to local press.
