Surveillance footage has surfaced showing Liam Payne engaging with a hotel staff member shortly before his tragic death. The footage, obtained by TMZ, depicts an interaction that has raised questions regarding the circumstances leading to the incident.
Details of the CCTV Footage Show Interaction with Hotel Staff
The video footage from the CasaSur Palermo Hotel in Buenos Aires shows Liam Payne conversing with a bellboy, believed to be Ezequiel David Pereyra. This interaction occurs at 2:04 PM local time, just hours before the singer fell from the balcony of his hotel suite. In the footage, Payne is seen emerging from the elevator and exchanging words with Pereyra, followed by a handshake before returning to the elevator.
Context Surrounding Liam Payne's Last Hours
Reports indicate that the delivery of drugs to Payne was made in a Dove soap box, with local authorities noting that only hotel staff had access to the soap supply. This detail has raised concerns about the involvement of hotel personnel in the lead-up to the tragic event. Witnesses suggest that Payne and Pereyra appeared friendly, potentially implying prior familiarity.
Charges Filed Against Involved Parties
The investigation has resulted in charges against three individuals connected to Payne’s death. Apart from Pereyra, Liam's friend Rogelio 'Roger' Nores and waiter Braian Nahuel Paiz have come under scrutiny. Nores has publicly stated that he did not abandon Payne, asserting that he visited the hotel multiple times that day and left shortly before the incident occurred.
Defense from the Charged Individuals
In a televised interview, Paiz denied any allegations regarding drug supply to Payne, insisting that their first meeting was at his workplace and their interactions were normal. He affirmed that while they used drugs together, he neither supplied drugs nor received any payment for such actions.
Investigative Findings Regarding Payne's Death
Recent investigations have determined that suicide or foul play was not a factor in Payne's death. Authorities concluded that due to the amount of drugs present in his system prior to the fall, Payne was likely not in a fully conscious state. This finding supports the conclusion that the singer did not intentionally fall from the balcony.
