Late Russian tycoon Boris Berezovsky is likely to be buried in his home country, according to media report.

Russian President Vladimir Putin's spokesman, Dmitry Peskov, has told reporters that Kremlin will decide on whether Berezovsky would be buried in Russia once it receives a request.

Berezovsky himself wanted to be buried near a Moscow region church where he was baptized, according to Ivan Rybkin, former Secretary of Russia's Security Council.

A post-mortem examination has found Russian tycoon Boris Berezovsky's death was "consistent with hanging", police have said.

Berezovsky, 67, was found dead on Saturday on a bathroom floor at his home in Berkshire.
