PERTH, Australia (AP) - Heath Ledger's family is back in Australia to prepare for his funeral.

But it's not clear if the body of the Oscar-nominated actor was on their flight that landed in Perth today.

Details of funeral arrangements for the "Brokeback Mountain" co-star have not been announced, and the mother of his 2-year-old daughter Matilda, actress Michelle Williams, has requested privacy.

The family will reportedly hold a private ceremony, and either bury his remains or have them cremated and interred at the family's plot at a cemetery in Perth.

The 28-year-old died in his New York City apartment last month. Authorities suspect a drug overdose, but they're still waiting for the results of toxicology tests.
