Police discovered dozens out tubes of skin-whitening creams during a search of the singer's Los Angeles home after his death, it's been reported.

Investigators swept the property in Holmby Hills on June 29 following an interview with Jackson's personal doctor, Conrad Murray.

Dr Murray, who has been charged with involuntary manslaughter, is believed to have pointed them towards a medical bag hidden in a closet.

Search warrants obtained by the Associated Press stated that the bag included 11 containers of the anesthetic propofol. An autopsy later determined that the drug was responsible for the singer's death.

During the search, officers also apparently discovered multiple tubes of hydroquinone and Benoquin – both commonly used to treat the skin condition vitiligo.

The creams are typically used to balance out patches of skin de-pigmented by the condition.

Last week, it was claimed Dr Murray had stopped administering CPR as the singer lay dying so he could hide drug vials. 

Dr Murray pleaded not guilty in February to a charge of involuntary manslaughter over the singer’s death.

He is due to appear in court again in Los Angeles on April 5.
