The funeral of a nurse who apparently killed herself following a royal hoax call in London is due to take place in her Indian hometown.
Jacintha Saldanha, 46, will be buried after a service at a church in Shirva, just outside Mangalore on the south-west Indian coast.
Her husband and two children arrived in the country with her coffin on Sunday.
The nurse had taken a prank call about the Duchess of Cambridge who was being treated for acute morning sickness.
Two presenters on a Sydney-based radio station convinced staff they were the Queen and Prince Charles, and were connected to the duchess's private nurse and given an update on her condition.
Paying tributeMrs Saldanha, who transferred the call to another nurse, was found dead days later, in nursing accommodation attached to the King Edward VII hospital.
Her funeral will be preceded by a memorial service and she is to be buried at a cemetery on the church grounds in Shirva.
Thousands of people are expected to attend the service and the authorities have made extensive arrangements, including deploying additional security.
Mrs Saldanha's husband, Benedict Barboza, had been to the cemetery on Monday morning to look at the grave where she will be laid to rest.
BBC correspondent Sanjoy Majumder said Mrs Saldanha's death had saddened many in India especially in her hometown, with some people saying it was a tragedy that simply should not have happened.
Others have called for a fresh investigation to determine what led to her death.
She left three suicide notes, her inquest last week revealed.
