Michael Jackson's family have asked for a second autopsy to be carried out on the late singer's body, it has been reported.

Following a post mortem on Friday, the Los Angeles County Coroner said that they found no evidence of foul play.

However, Rev Jesse Jackson has told BBC News that the Jackson family are frustrated that it could take up to six weeks for the official cause of death to be known.

He also said that the 'Thriller' star's relatives are demanding answers from his personal doctor Conrad Murray, who agreed to speak with the LAPD after allegations that he was missing.

TMZ claim that the second autopsy is currently taking place at an unknown location in LA.

It has also been suggested that police are now searching for an additional doctor connected to Jackson's death.
