A haunting image has emerged, offering a glimpse into the final moments of singer Liam Payne’s life.

The picture also raises serious concerns about the events leading to his untimely death.

The photo, taken from CCTV footage, shows the troubled British pop star being carried through the lobby of the CasaSur Palermo Hotel in Buenos Aires by three staff members just minutes before his fatal fall from a third-floor balcony on October 16.

The image, shared by The Daily Mail, shows Payne, visibly impaired, being escorted back to his room after reportedly convulsing on the hotel floor.

The incident has sparked questions about the actions of the hotel staff and whether more immediate intervention could have prevented the tragedy.

The decision by hotel staff to return Payne to his room rather than calling an ambulance immediately is now under scrutiny.

Chief receptionist Esteban Grassi later admitted in a 911 call that the singer was “high on drugs” and that they feared for his safety due to the balcony in his suite.

Despite expressing these concerns, the staff left Payne alone in the room and called emergency services only a few minutes later.

“If they were concerned about the balcony, why wasn’t he kept in the lobby until help arrived?” one observer asked.

The timeline of events is further muddled by discrepancies in CCTV timestamps, raising doubts about the accuracy of the hotel’s account.

Adding to the mystery, when Payne’s body was found, he was wearing a black cap and carrying a bag he had left in his room earlier, suggesting he had prepared to leave before his fatal fall.

The actions of the hotel staff have not been formally investigated, but three individuals, including two alleged drug dealers and Payne’s friend Roger Nores, are under scrutiny.
