Sweden’s public broadcaster said the body has been cleared to be taken back to Sweden.

In 2016, Avicii announced his retirement from performing live. He told the Hollywood Reporter that it was too difficult for him. “It was always very hard for me,” he said. “I took on board too much negative energy, I think. I just feel happy I feel free at this point. Like I have my private life back and focusing on myself for the first time in a long time.”
