Liam Payne toxicology report not complete after claims of cocaine in his body

An autopsy on his body is taking place in Argentina

Now, authorities in Argentina have come out and said that the toxicology exam on his body has not yet been completed.

The late singer's body will stay in Argentina until the autopsy is complete.

The 31-year-old was found dead in a courtyard at the CasaSur hotel in the Palermo neighbourhood of Buenos Aires last Wednesday (October 16).

Payne had fallen from the third-floor balcony of his hotel room, and it was confirmed the following day that he died from multiple traumas and internal and external bleeding caused by a fall.

During an inspection of the area where he fell, items including alcohol and a phone were found by police.

Police said there is no suggestion a third party was involved and that “everything indicates that the musician was alone when the fall happened.”

His former One Direction bandmates have all paid tribute to Payne, both in a joint statement and individually.

Cheryl Cole, who Payne was married to and welcomed his son, Bear, with, and Simon Cowell, who mentored One Direction on the X Factor and managed them, have also both paid emotional tributes to the singer.
