CCTV Captures Moment Liam Payne Was Transacting With a staff Few Hours before his …
Newly surfaced reports and surveillance footage reveal troubling details about Liam Payne’s final hours. On October 16, 2024, just hours before his tragic death in Buenos Aires, the former One Direction singer was recorded meeting with a hotel staffer, Ezequiel David Pereyra. Pereyra is now charged with supplying Payne with drugs concealed in a soap box. The footage captures them exchanging friendly words and a handshake in the basement of the CasaSur Palermo Hotel around 2:04 PM, roughly three hours before Payne fell from the balcony of his third-floor suite.
An autopsy revealed that Payne had several substances in his system at the time of his death, including cocaine, methamphetamine, ketamine, and MDMA, alongside prescription antidepressants. Investigators have ruled out suicide, instead linking the fall to the impairing effects of the drugs. The toxicology findings also highlighted that Payne was “not fully conscious” during the incident, raising questions about how these substances were introduced and consumed.
The case has implicated three individuals: the hotel employee, Pereyra, a friend accused of abandoning Payne, and a suspected drug supplier. Prosecutors believe these parties played roles in enabling Payne’s drug use during his stay. Over 800 hours of hotel surveillance footage are being reviewed to piece together the events leading to the tragedy. Meanwhile, Payne’s family has flown his body back to the UK for burial as fans worldwide mourn the devastating loss.
