Jermaine Jackson has described his late brother Michael as a “wonderful humanitarian” who wanted to find the good in everyone.

Jermaine told CP in Vienna that Jackson had donated much of the proceeds from his worldwide sell-out tours to charity.

"As much as my brother achieved in the music industry, he was a wonderful human being and a wonderful humanitarian," Jermaine said.

"My brother, he was well-versed in just knowing what was most important and that's giving back ... to make the world a much better place."

Jermaine's comments, which came ahead of a gala tribute to Jackson's life in the Austrian capital, come just days after he called for people to stop calling the singer by “crazy names”.

Meanwhile, detectives have identified the singer's doctor, Dr Conrad Murray, as the target of a manslaughter investigation into Jackson's death.
