New York (AFP) - Rock legend David Bowie asked for his ashes to be spread in Bali in a will submitted following his shocking death, a report said Friday.

The New York Post, citing Bowie's will which it said was filed in a Manhattan court, said that the British rock star wanted his ashes scattered in Bali in line with Buddhist rituals. The Indonesian island, which is predominantly Hindu, is renowned for its unique musical and artistic culture and as a retreat for spirituality seekers.
