Three People Charged in Connection to Liam Payne’s Death in Buenos Aires
Three individuals have been charged by Argentinian authorities in relation to the death of Liam Payne, former One Direction singer, who passed away on 16 October after a fall from a third-floor balcony at the CasaSur hotel in Buenos Aires.
The National Criminal and Correctional Prosecutor’s Office announced that one individual who had accompanied Payne faces charges of “the abandonment of a person followed by death.” Additionally, a hotel employee and another person have been charged with supplying drugs. Authorities have not disclosed the names of those charged.
Payne, 31, who rose to international fame with One Direction after competing on The X Factor, left behind a child. Following his death, reports emerged that hotel staff had contacted emergency services twice, citing concerns that a guest was “taking too many drugs and alcohol” and “trashing the entire room.” Upon investigation, police discovered substances and damaged furniture in Payne’s room.
Toxicology results indicated the presence of alcohol, cocaine, and a prescription antidepressant in Payne’s system. The autopsy concluded that his death resulted from “multiple trauma” and “internal and external haemorrhage” due to the fall. Medical evaluations suggested that Payne may have been in a state of semi- or total unconsciousness at the time of the incident, ruling out the possibility of a deliberate act.
Authorities have conducted nine raids across Buenos Aires as part of their ongoing investigation, seizing Payne’s broken laptop and other devices. Over 800 hours of security footage and numerous witness testimonies from hotel staff, friends, family, and medical professionals have been reviewed.
Payne’s body has since been released to his family and is set to be repatriated to the UK.

Megan Fox has revealed that she and rapper Machine Gun Kelly are expecting their first child together. The Transformers actress shared the news on social media, posting a striking photo where she is seen kneeling and covered in a dark, inky substance while cradling a visible baby bump. She tagged Kelly, her partner since 2020, in the post and captioned it: “Nothing is ever really lost. welcome back.”
Fox also shared an image of a positive pregnancy test, adding a poignant layer to the announcement. Last year, she disclosed that she had experienced a miscarriage, and in a recent interview with Women’s Wear Daily, she opened up about a past ectopic pregnancy, a condition where a fertilized egg implants outside the womb, often in a fallopian tube.
Fox, who is already a mother to three children from her previous marriage, is expanding her family with Kelly, who has a daughter from an earlier relationship. The couple’s journey, marked by challenges and resilience, has been celebrated by fans who expressed joy over the news.
The newly released Paddington in Peru has received mixed feedback from critics over its opening weekend, being described as “charming enough” yet lacking the magic of its predecessors. The third film in the beloved series follows Paddington Bear on a heartfelt journey back to Peru to visit his Aunt Lucy.
Fans were pleased to see familiar faces return, with Ben Whishaw reprising his voice role as Paddington, alongside Emily Mortimer and Hugh Bonneville. However, while the film brings nostalgia and warmth, critics suggest it falls short of the series’ established high standard.
Peter Bradshaw of The Guardian commented that the movie was “just as jolly as the previous two films, but not really as funny,” comparing it to a “special episode of a TV sitcom that takes the cast to the Costa del Sol.” Leslie Felperin of The Hollywood Reporter noted that while it didn’t capture the “absurdist wit and decidedly dark edge” of the earlier films, it was “serviceable enough given its limitations.”
Nick Curtis of The Standard offered a more critical view, awarding the film two stars and remarking that it “misses the easy charm, the fluency and the icy sliver of jeopardy” that appealed to audiences of all ages in the original movies. He also noted that the film’s pacing felt “ponderous and slow.”
Despite these critiques, Paddington in Peru still manages to charm audiences with the lovable bear’s adventures, even if it doesn’t fully capture the magic that made Paddington a cultural icon since his on-screen debut in 2014.
