Liam Payne ‘made drugs request’ to hotel worker amid new video three hours before death

An Argentinian hotel worker has been identified as a suspect accused of delivering drugs to the One Direction singer in a Dove soap box. The night Liam Payne fell from his third-floor balcony at the CasaSur Palermo Hotel, he allegedly requested “seven grams” of cocaine from a hotel worker three hours before his death. TMZ released footage showing Liam exiting a lift at the hotel and engaging in a conversation with one of the suspects under investigation. This encounter took place around 2pm on October 16, as confirmed by local reports and the video timestamps.

According to reports, Liam asked the hotel worker for “seven grams of cocaine”, believed to be the same drug previously supplied to him by the suspect. Shortly after their brief interaction, the suspect allegedly provided the drugs to Liam. Two other hotel workers who witnessed the exchange have given statements to investigators, corroborating the meeting between Liam and their colleague. The hotel worker in question has not publicly addressed the allegations against him.

Argentinian waiter Braian Nahuel Paiz admitted to meeting Liam twice before his death but denied supplying drugs to the singer. Paiz disclosed that during their second encounter at the hotel, Liam consumed cocaine while Paiz consumed marijuana. Liam’s close friend Rogelio ‘Roger’ Nores refuted claims of abandonment and involvement in the incident, stating he had visited Liam at the hotel multiple times on the day of the tragedy.

Prosecutors have revealed that three men are being investigated for their roles in Liam’s death, including the hotel employee suspected of supplying cocaine to the singer. Post-mortem tests indicated that Liam had consumed alcohol and cocaine before his fall, ruling out suicide as the cause of death. Liam’s father has since brought his son’s body back to the UK for funeral arrangements, with the service expected to take place in Wolverhampton.

In light of these tragic events, it is evident that Liam Payne’s untimely passing has sparked a complex investigation involving drug allegations and potential criminal charges against those close to him. The circumstances surrounding his death shed light on the dangers of substance abuse and the importance of seeking help for mental health issues. As fans mourn the loss of a talented artist, the investigation into Liam’s death serves as a reminder of the devastating consequences of drug misuse and the impact it can have on individuals and their loved ones.
