In a significant development in the tragic death of former One Direction member Liam Payne, authorities have arrested two individuals believed to be connected to the circumstances surrounding his fall from a hotel balcony in Buenos Aires last month. Payne, aged 30, was discovered dead after plummeting from the third floor of the CasaSur Palermo Hotel on October 16. An autopsy revealed he had been under the influence of several drugs.

According to reports from The Hollywood Reporter, the arrested individuals include a hotel maintenance worker and a suspected local drug dealer. Both are accused of providing the narcotics present in Payne's system at the time of his death. This investigation also led police to search the home of an Argentine businessman, who allegedly posed as Payne's manager in his final days.

In another twist, sources say Payne's hotel room was a chaotic scene with drugs, alcohol, and damaged property. He allegedly had an argument with two women, identified only as "L" and "R," whom he reportedly met through an escort app. Investigations are ongoing, with police seeking more information about the moments leading to his death.
