The bodies of Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran are believed to have arrived home in Sydney.

The men's family, including Chan's newlywed wife, touched down this morning on a flight from Indonesia that was believed to be carrying the bodies of the executed drug smugglers.

Families will now be preparing funerals for Chan and Sukumaran.

The pair were executed in Indonesia on Wednesday, 10 years after their part in the Bali Nine heroin-smuggling plot.

Australia's ambassador to Indonesia, Paul Grigson, has been recalled to Canberra over the executions and will return over the weekend.

Meanwhile, the former lawyer for the Bali Nine drug smugglers is reported to be under arrest.

Muhammad Rifan went public this week with allegations the judges in the case demanded huge bribes, in return for not handing down the death sentence.
