Liam Payne’s heartbroken friend Rogelio Nores has denied abandoning the late One Direction star before his tragic death. Liam died last month in Buenos Aires, Argentina after falling from his hotel balcony.

His friend, Rogelio, known as Roger has now spoken out in a statement, and denied being a suspect. It comes after three suspects have been arrested and are under formal investigation for the singer’s death, with one accused being disclosed as having accompanied Liam on a daily basis during his stay in Argentina.

Rogelio had been with Liam during the days before he died, but has now ‘shut down’ accusations that he is the individual charged with ‘abandoning a person followed by death’.The individual in question has also been charged with being complicit in the supply of drugs.

Both crimes are punishable by a prison sentence of up to 15 years on conviction. In a statement to Mail Online, Rogelio said: “I never abandoned Liam, I went to his hotel 3 times that day and left 40 minutes before this happened.There were over 15 people at the hotel lobby chatting and joking with him when I left.
