Liam Payne's death
Liam Payne died on Wednesday (16 October) after falling from the balcony of a Buenos Aires hotel where he was staying during his Argentinian vacation. His autopsy report confirmed that the One Direction star succumbed to "a cranial fracture and extremely serious injuries."
"The circumstances of the case are being investigated as a 'questionable death,'" the post-autopsy report revealed, adding, "Although everything indicates that the musician was alone when the fall occurred, he was going through some type of outbreak from substance abuse."
So far, there has been no suspicion of foul play in the singer's death; however, many fans have demanded an in-depth investigation into it, suggesting it could be a part of some bigger controversy.
