Accusations Surface: Hotel Worker Surrenders to Authorities Over Drug Delivery to Liam Payne
Ezequiel David Pereyra, a 21-year-old hotel worker, has surrendered to authorities in Buenos Aires after being accused of supplying drugs to former One Direction singer Liam Payne, who tragically died on October 16, 2024.
Pereyra’s surrender follows a manhunt initiated after he failed to comply with an arrest warrant. He negotiated his surrender through his lawyer, and authorities have confirmed his return to police custody.
In addition to Pereyra, 24-year-old hotel waiter Braian Nahuel Paiz has been arrested in connection with Payne’s death. Both individuals face charges that could result in prison sentences ranging from four to fifteen years.
