A tragic incident involving former One Direction member, Liam Payne, has taken a significant legal turn in Argentina. A judge has concluded that the singer's manager and certain hotel staffers did not fulfill their duties appropriately before Payne's untimely death.

Payne tragically fell from the balcony of his Buenos Aires hotel in October, a development now attributed to negligence by several parties. The pop star's manager, alongside the hotel manager and reception head, are charged with manslaughter and could face up to five years imprisonment if proven guilty.

Further compounding the case, a hotel worker and a local waiter have been accused of providing Payne with cocaine. They face severe allegations, potentially leading to a 15-year prison term. Both have been detained in anticipation of their upcoming trial.
