Iraqi police have discovered a mass grave containing the remains of at least 10 people south of Baghdad.

Local police unearthed the bodies yesterday in a field near Latifiyah .. 30km south of the capital.

Police say the victims' hands were bound and they had been shot in the head.. execution-style.

Authorities believe they were killed about two years ago by al-Qaeda in Iraq.

It comes after Wednesday's find of a mass grave in a Shi'ite neighbourhood in Baghdad .. with the remains of at least 15 people removed.
