The results of toxicological examinations confirm this. Liam Payne had consumed alcohol, cocaine and antidepressants before dying on October 16 when he fell from the balcony of his hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentine justice said on Thursday.
“The results of the toxicological studies – already communicated to his family – revealed that, in the moments preceding his death and for at least his last 72 hours, Payne presented in his body a polyconsumption of alcohol, cocaine and antidepressants” , indicates the prosecution in a press release, specifying that three people were charged with selling drugs and abandoning a vulnerable person.
Psychological crisis
Preliminary results of the autopsy had already established that he was going through “a sort of crisis due to substance abuse”, according to the Argentine prosecutor’s office.
The body of the ex-member of boy band One Direction was being transferred to London on Wednesday, according to a police source. Geoff Payne, the singer’s father, accompanies the remains on board a plane which took off from Buenos Aires international airport.
