Argentinian authorities have charged three people in connection with the death of One Direction star Liam Payne, who died on 16 October after falling from the third-floor balcony of a hotel in Buenos Aires. One of the three people charged accompanied Payne; they have been charged with the abandonment of a person followed by death and the supply and facilitation of drugs. The other two people charged are a hotel employee and a third person who have both been charged with supplying drugs. None of those arrested have been named.
Payne was 31 and a father-of-one. After appearing on The X Factor, he rose to fame with the boyband One Direction in the 2010s. Argentinian authorities have been investigating Payne’s final days, and after his death, police found substances in his hotel room. Hotel staff had made two calls to emergency services saying they had a guest who had taken “too many drugs and alcohol” and was “trashing the entire room”, it was previously reported.
On Thursday, the public prosecutor’s office said toxicology tests revealed traces of alcohol, cocaine and a prescription antidepressant in Payne’s body. A post-mortem examination revealed that his cause of death was “multiple trauma” and “internal and external haemorrhage” as a result of the fall from the hotel balcony. Medical reports also suggested Payne may have fallen in a state of semi or total unconsciousness, which the prosecutor’s office says rules out the possibility of a conscious or voluntary act by Payne.
Following Payne’s death, tributes flooded in from his former partner Cheryl, One Direction bandmates, and music mogul Simon Cowell. Payne’s bandmates said in a joint statement that they were “completely devastated” and will miss the singer “terribly”. Thousands of fans also remembered the late singer at memorial events in the UK and around the world
