Singer Liam Payne used drugs before falling to his death

Liam Payne, a 31-year-old former One Direction member, had been using drugs and medication before falling from a hotel balcony to his death.

Western media reported on October 22 that preliminary test reports showed that Liam Payne used "Pink Cocaine" - a drug mixture that mixes methamphetamine, ketamine, MDMA and many others.

In addition, some other types include crystal meth, benzodiazepine - a group of strong sleeping pills that have sedative effects, slowing down brain and body activity.

An unnamed official stressed that these initial preliminary results do not give an accurate result on the amount of cocaine circulating in Liam Payne's blood when he died.

Final toxicology test results will take some time to be officially released. Preliminary reports were presented to investigators as evidence that the singer had been exposed to drugs before the tragic incident that led to his death.

Argentine authorities are investigating Liam Payne's case. This is not uncommon because the singer's death was sudden and unexpected.

An autopsy concluded that the severe injuries that caused Liam Payne's death were consistent with a fall from the third floor. They ruled out third-party involvement.

Earlier, after a preliminary examination of the scene, investigators also speculated that the male singer was abusing drugs. He may have jumped from the balcony of the hotel room on the third floor in a "semi-unconscious or completely unconscious" state. Before Liam Payne died, the hotel manager called 911 to report an aggressive and destructive guest in the room under the influence of drugs and alcohol.

Investigators are trying to find out who sold Liam Payne the drugs he took at the hotel. They have also taken statements from at least three hotel employees, as well as two women who visited Liam Payne's room in the hours before the singer died.

Liam Payne arrived in Argentina at the end of September with his girlfriend Kate Cassidy to attend a concert by Niall Horan, a former member of One Direction. The couple then stayed there to relax and shared many video clips on social media.

On October 14, Kate Cassidy returned to the US while Liam Payne stayed behind. On October 16, he fell from the third floor of a hotel and died. Many colleagues and fans mourned the male singer.
