Argentinian police are investigating two staff members from the Buenos Aires hotel where Liam Payne tragically fell to his death for allegedly supplying him with drugs in the days leading up to his death.
Two male staff members have been accused of providing the former One Direction member with hard drugs at his suite in the Casa Sur hotel in Palermo, Argentina. The two workers have been accused of smuggling the drugs into the 31-year-old’s room in an empty box of Dove Soap.
When police searched the room, they discovered the box, along with various white powder, tablets and drug paraphernalia that has been sent for testing.
A close friend of the singer believed that one of the men supplying Payne with drugs was a cleaner at the hotel.
“There were two guys at the hotel that were giving Liam drugs,” they told the Daily Mail.
“They sent taxis out to collect packages for him. One of the guys was working in the cleaning department. After Liam died, they noticed that one taxi was sent to the cleaner’s home address.
“The hotel manager asked him why the taxi had gone to his home and when he couldn’t give an explanation he was fired.”
The source says that Payne had been doing everything he could to stay sober but he struggled when he was allegedly offered alcohol and drugs by hotel staff.
The Casa Sur hotel has not made a statement following Payne’s death.
Liam Payne fell off the third storey of the Casa Sur Hotel on October 17. Police confirmed the news shortly after in a statement.
“Liam James Payne, composer and guitarist, former member of the band One Direction, died today after falling from the third floor of a hotel in Palermo,” it read.
In the days that followed, autopsy reports revealed that his cause of death was directly linked to the fall and that he was in a state of “semi or total unconsciousness” when he fell.
Since his passing, his family, friends, fans and his One Direction band mates have shared heartfelt tributes for the singer.
Rest easy, Liam.
