Liam Payne’s Death
Liam tragically passed away on October 16 after falling from the balcony of his hotel in Argentine capital Buenos Aires. Police investigation took more than a month, after which, the deceased was flown to his hometown for the final rites.
In a report by People, The National Criminal and Correctional Prosecutor’s Office informed that an autopsy revealed 25 injuries were “compatible with those caused by a fall from a height”. They further confirmed that “head injuries were sufficient to cause death”, along with internal and external haemorrhages in various parts of his body including “the skull, thorax, abdomen and limbs”.
