LOS ANGELES,July8(Xinhua)——Michael Jackson's burial remained a mystery as part of his brain is being held by the coroner's (验尸官)office for tests, an official said.

The late superstar's body was transported to an undisclosed place Tuesday after a star-crowded public memorial service at the Staples Center in downtown Los Angeles. It is still unclear where and when the singer's body will be buried.
