A new video has surfaced, showing Liam Payne having a conversation with the man who is alleged to have supplied him with drugs. The 31-year-old unfortunately died after plummeting from his third-floor hotel room balcony in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on October 16. The star died following multiple injuries that resulted in both "internal and external haemorrhage".
Allegations have been made that a staff member at the luxury CasaSur Palermo Hotel, where Liam was staying, provided him drugs concealed in a Dove soap packet. According to toxicology results, at the time of his passing, Liam had antidepressants and cocaine in his system—even though he had reportedly been free from drugs just a few days prior. Freshly released footage seems to capture the former One Direction member going to the hotel’s basement via an elevator to meet the employee in question.
TMZ obtained footage depicts Liam stepping out from the elevator and greeting a hotel worker, in the midst of what appears to be their typical workday routines, by shaking hands. Following another hand slap, the employee exits through a door, while Liam returns to the elevator. The security footage timestamped around 2:04 pm was taken merely hours before Liam's tragic fall, reports the Mirror .
It appears that Liam and the employee were on good terms based on their interaction. It's claimed that only staff at the hotel had access to their supplies of the Dove soap which was seen in Liam's room on the third floor of the swank.
