BUENOS AIRES, Argentina — One Direction star Liam Payne consumed cocaine, alcohol and a prescription antidepressant before falling to his death from a Buenos Aires hotel balcony last month, Argentine prosecutors said Thursday.
The prosecutor's office added that three people were charged with supplying him with drugs and one of them was also charged with abandoning a person in a vulnerable state.'The results of the toxicological studies, which have been communicated to his family, revealed that, in the moments prior to his death and over a period covering at least his last 72 hours, Payne had traces of polydrug use of alcohol, cocaine and a prescription antidepressant in his body,' the prosecutors said.
A third person is also accused of supplying him with the drug on October 14, two days before his death.The prosecution ruled out self-harm and the 'physical intervention of third parties' as the cause of Payne's death, saying that the injuries he sustained were compatible with those caused by a fall.'Payne was either not fully conscious or was in a state of markedly diminished or absent consciousness at the time of the fall,' the report said.
