The investigation into Ex-One Direction singer Liam Payne’s tragic death took a grave turn this week. Three individuals connected to the events surrounding his fatal fall from a Buenos Aires hotel balcony last month have reportedly been arrested.

Official Autopsy Report Indicates Death By Using Narcotics

Liam Payne, 25, was found dead on October 16 after falling from the balcony of a third floor at CasaSur Palermo Hotel. According to an official autopsy report, obtained by The Hollywood Reporter, Payne was said to have been on several drugs when he died.

About The Suspects Detained

Among the three, two of the suspects detained were a hotel maintenance worker and a local drug dealer, as per reports. Both allegedly supplied Payne with narcotics which was found in his system after the fatal fall. There are also speculations that these individuals played a larger role in the events that led to the death of the singer.

The probe also led authorities to raid the residence of an Argentine businessman. He is said to have introduced himself as a manager to Payne during his last days. Although none of the individuals facing charges have been officially named by Argentine authorities, the situation is evolving as police continue to piece together the events leading to Payne’s demise, as per The Hollywood Reporter.

Chaotic Scene In Payne’s Hotel Room Before Fatal Fall

Reportedly, Payne’s hotel room contained a mix of narcotics, alcoholic beverages, and several damaged items, suggesting a chaotic scene before his fatal fall. Payne was reportedly under the influence of cocaine when he fell from the balcony.

Businessman Faces Charges Of ‘Abandonment of A Person’

In a further twist, the businessman involved in the investigation has reportedly been accused of “abandonment of a person,” a charge related to his failure to notify Payne’s family about his deteriorating state or to contact authorities after the singer’s death.

The businessman, who did not directly report Payne’s death to the authorities, has reportedly only cooperated with police through his lawyer. While the charge of abandonment does not require detention, it is a significant development in the case.

Police Raid Multiple Locations

As part of their ongoing investigation, police raided nine different locations, including eight connected to the accused individuals.

The ninth location was the rented room of one of the women, “L,” who had been in Payne’s room hours before the fall.

Though “L” initially spoke with authorities, she has since disappeared, as per The Hollywood Reporter.
Authorities are reportedly actively searching for her.

In the wake of these developments, Payne’s body is being repatriated to the UK for his funeral. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the investigation continues to unfold, with police collecting numerous items, including nine mobile phones, computers, hard drives, and a jar of marijuana, which may provide further insight into the events of that fateful night.
