Munir helped expose human rights abuses by Indonesia's powerful military from East Timor to Aceh.
He also led an independent investigation into the shooting of student activists by security forces in 1998, when students forced then president Suharto out of power and demanded new parliamentary elections.
He was instrumental in highlighting the disappearance of dozens of activists, many of whom were recovered thanks to his efforts.
Last year, a small bomb was detonated outside his house after he criticised a draft Truth and Reconciliation Bill as toothless.
His widow Suciwati Munir demanded access to the autopsy report.
"As his wife, I should be the first person to receive my husband's autopsy results, not the government," she told journalists.
Munir had been on his way to Amsterdam to take a course in humanitarian law in Utrecht when he began vomiting shortly after the Garuda Indonesia flight left Singapore's Changi Airport. He died several hours later.
