BUENOS AIRES: The world was left in shock yesterday after the tragic death of English singer Liam Payne (31), a former member of the popular boy band ‘One Direction’. Payne fell from a hotel balcony, sparking numerous rumors and speculations about the circumstances of his death. Some have suggested it could be a case of suicide or even foul play.

According to reports, just before Payne's fall, a manager at the Buenos Aires hotel where he was staying called an emergency helpline to seek urgent assistance.

It’s been revealed that the hotel management made two separate calls to the helpline. The manager also mentioned that Payne had been in the room for two or three days prior to the incident. Eyewitnesses reported that the singer had been acting strangely in the hours leading up to his death.
