Amy WinehouseWinehouse had hits with Rehab and Back to Black

The inquest into the death of Amy Winehouse is due to start later.

The 27-year-old singer was found dead at her home in Camden, north London, on 23 July following years of alcohol and drug addiction.

Toxicology tests showed "no illegal substances" in her system at the time of her death.

On Monday Scotland Yard admitted a file into her death may have been sent to the wrong address last Friday. It has since been handed in to police.

The material, which contained information relating to the inquest, was meant to be dispatched to the star's family.

Police said inquiries into the matter were being carried out.

Since her death, Winehouse's 2006 album Back to Black has become the UK's bestselling album of the 21st Century.
