Three offenders have been charged in connection with their alleged role in Liam Payne’s immediate destruction last month in the ongoing investigation into the pop singer’s death.
The National Criminal and Correctional Prosecutor’s Office of Argentina announced Thursday in a , statement , shared in Spanish that it has found evidence of “illicit do” by three persons — including an employee of the lodge where Payne fell to his death. The costs included the drug supply and distribution, and the person’s suicide followed by the abandonment of a person. The suspects, who were not identified, were charged next Friday in a 180-page prosecution delivered to assess Laura Graciela Bruniard, the statement said.
Payne, an” X Factor” student who likewise pursued a piano music career after his One Direction time,  , died Oct. 16 , after falling from a third-floor ledge at a motel in Buenos Aires. He was 31.
In a , primary autopsy , shared a day after the singer’s dying, Argentine authorities said authorities found elements in the band’s place that appeared to be medicines in addition to evidence of consumption of alcohol and narcotics.
Authorities carried out nine attacks and heard” some few” stories from people including resort staff, Payne’s family and friends, health professionals and other experts, Thursday’s statement said. Additionally, police officers examined the resort’s surveillance footage, which included calls and messages made over several messaging and social media apps, and examined the singer’s guest list and the hotel’s bar and restaurant’s drinking and eating habits.
Additionally, officers from the Cybercrime system gathered data from hotel receptionists ‘ smartphones to verify reports.
During his stay in Buenos Aires, Payne was alleged that one of the accused accompanied him regularly. Payne died two weeks after he arrived in Argentina, where he attended an Oct. 2 music by former , One Direction bandmate Niall Horan. According to the speech, this plaintiff was accused of giving a person a life sentence followed by death, as well as of facilitating the distribution of cocaine. The remaining two accused face drug-related narcotics scheming.
A hotel worker is accused of giving Payne heroin while he was staying there. According to Thursday’s speech, the other is a suspected narcotics supplier who has already been accused of selling drugs in individual incidents.
The prosecutors said it was considering excluding the possibility of death because “in the position he was going by, he did not know what he was doing nor had he know it.”
In October, authorities determined Payne , died from multiple traumas , and internal and external bruising caused by the fall. He “did not choose a spontaneous position to defend himself and … he may have fallen in a state of semi- or complete unconsciousness”, officials said next month.
Payne had traces of alcohol, cocaine and a prescription antidepressant in his system in the moments before his death, Thursday’s statement said. Prosecutors confirmed that Payne’s body had been delivered to his father, Geoff Payne.
Payne’s remains , reportedly , will be flown back to his native London, one of the cities where One Direction fans , gathered last month , to celebrate the singer’s life and music.
Plans for a posthumous release of Payne’s song” Do No Wrong” were quickly put on hold after backlash from fans.
” Today I’m deciding to hold’ Do No Wrong’ and leave those liberties up to all family members”, Payne’s collaborator Sam Pounds said last week in a since-deleted tweet. ” I want all of the proceeds to go to a charity of their choosing ( or however they choose ).”
Pounds added:” We are all still mourning the passing of Liam and I want the family to ( mourn ) in peace and in prayer. We will all wait”.
