Video of Liam Payne emerges hours before his death

A new video related to the death of former One Direction member Liam Payne has generated an important twist in the investigations into the singer’s death, which occurred on October 16 after falling from the third floor of the Hotel Casa Sur, in the Palermo neighborhood of Buenos Aires , Argentina.

The video , posted on social media X by TMZ , shows Payne talking to a hotel employee identified as Ezequiel, three hours before the fatal incident.

According to preliminary reports, the 31-year-old singer allegedly requested illegal substances from the employee, who had allegedly already provided him with drugs in previous days.

Arrests related to Liam’s death

The Buenos Aires Prosecutor’s Office reported in early November that three people have been arrested as part of the investigation.

The suspects include a companion of the singer, a drug dealer and the hotel employee who appears in the video released on Friday, November 15.

The recording, just over a minute long, shows several hotel employees near Payne ‘s room . In the video, the singer appears briefly chatting with one of them before leaving. Although brief, the recorded interaction could be key to clarifying the events that led to the artist’s death.

Details of the case

Liam Payne died after falling from a third floor in an incident initially described as an accident. However, authorities are investigating possible circumstances that could imply negligence or the involvement of third parties.

Argentine authorities are continuing to reconstruct the events to determine who is responsible and to clarify whether any crime contributed to the tragic outcome.
