about the funeral
according to sun.co.ukLiam’s funeral will reportedly take place next week and the former One Direction star’s body will be flown back to the UK within the next 48 hours. “The recently released 31-year-old could be back in the UK as soon as Wednesday – his funeral will take place at St Paul’s Cathedral in Wolverhampton,” the report said.
The singer-songwriter died last month after falling from the third floor of his hotel in Buenos Aires.
Liam’s body arrived at the city’s British Cemetery two days after his death as authorities investigated his death. Now, his body will reach the UK within 48 hours with all the paperwork completed, the Sun reported, quoting Argentinian daily La Nación.
An autopsy performed on Liam revealed that he suffered 25 injuries as a result of the fall, which resulted in his death.
Last week, Argentinian police raided his hotel in search of information about alleged drug dealing staff who sold Liam the substance, which he is believed to have consumed before he died.
It is believed that Liam used to smuggle drugs by hiding them in soap boxes. Officials are now investigating two hotel employees, including a cleaner.
Prosecutors said in a statement that they believe Liam fell into “a state of semi- or complete unconsciousness” during a drug-induced incident.
Liam’s girlfriend Kate Cassidy has also paid an emotional tribute to Liam, revealing the pair plan to marry next year.
