Michael Jackson's father has said the "King of Pop" will be buried at a Los Angeles cemetery on August 29, which would have been his 51st birthday, a newspaper reported on Monday.
Joe Jackson told the New York Daily News that the plan was finalized in recent days.
Media reports last week said Jackson, who died June 25 of cardiac arrest, was buried in a private ceremony in early August. But those reports were based on unnamed sources and never confirmed by Jackson family representatives.
A Jackson family spokesman was not immediately available Monday to comment on the Daily News story, nor was a spokesman at Los Angeles' Forest Lawn cemetery, where Joe Jackson said his son would be buried.
A public memorial for the singer was held in July, but there was never an official confirmation that the "Thriller" singer was buried after the event.
The reason behind Jackson's cardiac arrest remains a mystery. The Los Angeles County Coroner's office has completed its autopsy report but its findings remain sealed until police conclude their investigation.
Los Angeles police are looking into the role prescription drugs may have played in Jackson's death and the actions of doctors who were treating him in the weeks before he died.

據一家報紙本周一報道,流行天王邁克爾?杰克遜的父親稱杰克遜將于本月29日在洛杉磯一處公墓安葬,當天正是他的51歲生日。
喬?杰克遜向《紐約日報》透露,該計劃是在最近幾天確定下來的。
邁克爾·杰克遜于6月25日因心臟停搏而去世。上周有媒體報道稱,杰克遜已于8月初在一個私人儀式上被安葬。但那些報道都沒有明確的來源,也從未得到過杰克遜家人的證實。
周一當天,(有關方面)未能在第一時間聯系到杰克遜的家庭發言人就《紐約日報》的這篇報道作出評論,也沒能聯系到喬?杰克遜所說的將作為他兒子埋葬地的洛杉磯森林草坪墓園的發言人。
邁克爾·杰克遜的公眾悼念儀式于七月份舉行,但從未有官方證明其在追悼會后被安葬。杰克遜的著名代表作為《顫栗》。
目前,導致杰克遜心臟驟停的原因依然是一個謎。洛杉磯郡的驗尸官辦公室已完成尸檢報告,但在警方結束調查之前,其結果尚未對外公布。
洛杉磯警方正在調查杰克遜之死是否與服用處方藥有關,以及在杰克遜死前數周醫生對其采取的治療行動。
