The second of two men accused of supplying drugs to British singer Liam Payne, who plunged to his death from a third-floor hotel room in Buenos Aires last year, has turned himself in to authorities, Argentine police said Tuesday.

Liam Payne’s dad, Geoff Payne, is being sued by the late singer’s friend, Rogelio 'Roger' Nores, following the star's tragic death. The former One Direction singer tragically died last year (16 October), after falling from a third-floor balcony at the Casa Sur Hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina, aged just 31.

Geoff needs to backtrack on his sworn statement as he very well knows I wasn’t Liam’s nurse or care taker,” Nores tells Page Six.

Liam Payne 's friend Roger Nores has filed a defamation suit against the singer's father, Geoff Payne. He claimed that his late friend's father smeared him in the media in the weeks after Payne's death, referencing the man's claim of Nores being negligent in taking care of the singer.

In a complaint, Nores claims he "did not have a legal duty to Liam" and that his friendship with the musician was misrepresented to an Argentine prosecutor

Liam Payne's drug use brought him "close to death" on several occasions in the months leading up to his fatal fall in October, according to his friend Roger Nores.

Geoff Payne, the father of the late One Direction star Liam Payne, is facing a defamation lawsuit from the singer’s friend, Roger Nores, over comments made following Liam’s passing. Payne, aged 31, died from “multiple trauma” and “internal and external hemorrhage” after falling from a hotel balcony in Buenos Aires.
