Liam Payne, former One Direction star, tragically died after falling from the balcony of his third-floor hotel room in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on October 16 at age 31. Toxicology reports revealed that Payne had multiple substances in his system, including cocaine, crack, benzodiazepine, and 'pink cocaine'—a mix containing meth, ketamine, and MDMA. A partial autopsy confirmed these findings. Police investigations suggest that two male staff members at the CasaSur hotel may have supplied the drugs to Payne. Authorities are probing the involvement of these hotel workers, who allegedly concealed the drugs in a Dove Soap box. Payne was reportedly under the influence of a potent hallucinogenic drug at the time of his fatal fall.
