The ashes of Australian man Rye Hunt have returned home to Tasmania after he was cremated in Brazil. Brazilian authorities believe Mr Hunt may have died from dehydration or drowning after attempting to swim while under the influence of recreational drugs. Police released CCTV footage showing Mr Hunt at the airport and a search led them to an apartment he booked for three days. "The family spent the day with them debriefing and sharing memories of Rye," his sister Romany Brodribb told AAP on Sunday. His uncle Michael Wholohan and girlfriend Bonnie Cuthbert arrived back in Hobart with his ashes on Sunday morning.
