Prosecutors say they charged someone who was close to the singer, a hotel employee and a suspected drug dealer

Three people have been charged in relation to the death of the One Direction singer Liam Payne, Argentinian prosecutors said on Thursday, after the superstar fell from his hotel balcony last month.

Payne had traces of alcohol, cocaine and a prescription antidepressant in his system when he died, authorities said in a statement. Those charged are someone who was close to Payne, a hotel employee and a suspected drug dealer, prosecutors added.
