Liam Payne’s father Saturday visited the tragic scene of where his son fell to his death last Wednesday in Buenos Aries Argentina.
Mr. Geoff Payne viewed tributes outside the hotel where his son died and was followed by photographers despite the family’s request for privacy.
Meanwhile the mother of his only son Bear, Cheryl Cole posted on Instagram: “As I try to navigate this earth-shattering event, and work through my own grief at this indescribably painful time, I’d like to kindly remind everyone that we have lost a human being.”
The One Direction star died of multiple traumas and internal bleeding after plunging from a hotel balcony. In the first official details of the autopsy, the prosecutor’s office said coroners had found 25 injuries compatible with those caused by a fall from height, including fatal head injuries, with internal and external bleeding.
It added that there were no signs of a third party being involved, though the incident was being investigated as a “suspicious death” out of protocol.
“Everything indicates that the musician was alone when the fall occurred and was going through some kind of episode due to substance abuse,” the prosecutor’s office said.
“City police who surveyed the scene found substances inside the room that at first glance – and pending confirmation from the experts – would be narcotics and alcoholic beverages, as well as several destroyed objects and furniture,” it added.
