 Unseen CCTV footage shows Liam Payne fainting before tragic fall, claims Argentinian journalist

Argentinian journalist Paula Varela has reportedly disclosed new details about Liam Payne's death on air. The broadcast journalist, who hosts Socios del Espectaculo on Canal 13, a Buenos Aires-based TV station, recently stated on her show that CCTV footage captured Payne’s fall at the hotel.

Varela also claimed that in the video, which is currently being withheld, Payne appears to faint on the balcony before falling. 

She explained: "There is footage that is not being released to the media with the balcony scene where you see that Liam faints and tragically because of where he is, falls from that balcony. If he had been beside his bed he would have fallen on his bed."

Though Varela’s comments suggest such footage exists, it has not been made publicly available.

Varela’s claims imply that Payne’s fall from the balcony of his hotel room was not intentional. According to Mirror UK, this aligns with prosecutors’ earlier statements, which suggested that Payne was “in a state of semi or total unconsciousness” during a substance-induced “psychotic episode” when he fell.

Todo Noticias and other Argentine media outlets reported that a preliminary report found evidence of exposure to “pink cocaine” cocaine,alongside traces of methamphetamines, ketamine, MDMA, benzodiazepines, and crack cocaine in his system

Varela further alleged that a member of the hotel staff is under investigation for their interactions with Payne, claiming the staff member had "struck up an excellent relationship with Liam."

The journalist also claimed that this staff member ignored a direct order from hotel management not to bring anything into Payne's room. He allegedly arranged a car for the singer through a taxi app and is now under investigation to determine what was “transferred in that vehicle.”

According to Varela, this staff member has been suspended from the hotel. Payne was staying at the Casa Sur Hotel in the Palermo neighborhood in the two to three days before his death.
