Liam Payne’s body is set to be repatriated to the UK by Monday at the latest, as preparations are underway for his funeral next week. Following the tragic events surrounding his death, undertakers have transferred the former One Direction singer’s remains from a morgue in Buenos Aires to the British Cemetery in the city. This move comes after local authorities granted his father, Geoff Payne, the necessary permissions to bring his son home.
Reports indicate that the repatriation could happen as soon as tomorrow or Monday, contingent upon the completion of the embalming process. Argentine media outlet La Nacion has confirmed that all required documents have been finalized for the return, allowing the family to proceed with funeral arrangements back in the UK. Geoff Payne had initially been informed that the process could take several days; however, complications arose due to the circumstances of his son’s passing.
The investigation into Liam’s death continues, with toxicology and tissue tests pending. Initial findings suggested a connection to a substance-induced episode, and law enforcement has been looking into the possibility of drug-related involvement. Authorities searched the hotel where Liam was staying, reportedly looking for evidence that could link him to potential drug dealers.
Eyewitness accounts have emerged regarding the presence of drugs at the scene, with forensic experts allegedly finding traces of cocaine in Liam’s system. Additionally, some reports suggest that a mixture of various narcotics may have been involved, including designer drugs. However, conclusive results from further testing have yet to be confirmed.
Geoff Payne has been actively engaged in the arrangements since arriving in Argentina just two days after his son’s untimely death. He was seen at a memorial set up by fans outside the hotel, where many have expressed their sorrow. There is now a growing petition among fans advocating for a memorial in Liam’s honor in his hometown of Wolverhampton, showcasing the profound impact he had on ma
ny lives.
