Family, friends, and millions of fans of Liam Payne are still coming to terms with the shocking tragedy that occurred last Wednesday in a luxury hotel in Buenos Aires. The ongoing investigation will hopefully establish the exact sequence of events. More and more information is gradually coming to light.
The relatives of the 31-year-old have requested the swiftest possible return of his body to the UK. However, as reported by the Argentinian media, they will need to be patient. The singer’s funeral is planned for November.
Liam Payne's body to remain temporarily abroad
According to the "Clarin" newspaper, the singer's body is expected to remain in the country for at least another 10 days. However, this duration could extend by another 5 days. This depends on when the results of the toxicological tests are received.
This implies that the repatriation of his remains, and thus the official farewell, could happen at the earliest at the beginning of next month. Representatives from the British embassy assured the public through the newspaper that they "are supporting Liam Payne's family and are in contact with local authorities."
