The family of late British singer Amy Winehouse decided that she will be buried on Tuesday, with only family members and close friends attending.

The family of late British singer Amy Winehouse decided that she will be buried on Tuesday, with only family members and close friends attending, BBC said.

A spokesman for her family refused to disclose time and location of the sad event.

Winehouse, notorious for her drug and alcohol use, was found dead in her apartment on Saturday. Her body was handed over to relatives after autopsy, which failed to establish the cause of death. Results of further toxicology tests could take from two to four weeks.

Police earlier witnessed in court that forensics found no signs of suspicious or criminal activity in her house.

The five-time Grammy award winner Winehouse died at the age of 27, the same age at death as musicians Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin, Brian Jones and Kurt Cobain.
