Several hours have passed since the tragic death of Liam Payne, yet his loved ones and millions of fans are still grappling with the premature passing of the 31-year-old. Investigators working to determine the exact circumstances of the tragedy, which occurred at the CasaSur Palermo hotel, are regularly updating the progress of the case.
The official cause of death was confirmed by an autopsy conducted less than 5 hours after the incident. The prosecutor's office in Buenos Aires issued an official statement, indicating that the artist was alone in the hotel room just before his death. The examination showed that the singer died as a result of "multiple traumatic injuries" and "internal and external bleeding."
Here are the circumstances of Liam Payne’s death
According to the report, the singer's body was found in the hotel’s inner courtyard shortly after he attempted to jump from a great height into the pool. The autopsy confirmed a skull fracture and 24 other severe injuries, leading to immediate death.
There is no indication of Liam Payne's involvement in a fight. Examination of his hands showed no defensive injuries. Furthermore, due to the position in which the body was found, the report suggested that "it is presumed that Payne did not adopt a reflexive posture to protect himself and may have fallen in a state of semi or total unconsciousness."
In the coming days, additional test results, including toxicology tests commissioned by investigators, will be presented.
