Liam Payne allegedly partied it up with two women identified as prostitutes and had a wild time the night he fell to his death.
RadarOnline.com can reveal the two women denied using drugs with the former One Direction singer, but claimed they were drinking throughout the night in Argentina.
Payne died at the age of 31 after falling from his hotel balcony in Buenos Aires, Argentina, after attending his former bandmate Niall Horan's show earlier that week.
The women said they were called to the CasaSur Palermo Hotel, where Payne was staying, through an escort service platform.
Eyewitnesses claimed a dispute arose between the former One Direction star and the women over payment, leading to their departure from the hotel around the time of the incident.
A hotel guest named Michael Fleischmann confirmed the argument over money and described Payne as upset and agitated before his fall.
According to police reports obtained by local outlets, the ladies also confirmed to authorities they were prostitutes.
Prostitution is not illegal under federal laws, but certain local laws prohibit it. In Buenos Aires, it is reportedly a crime to buy sex in "unauthorized" public areas.
Payne's girlfriend, Kate Cassidy, had left Argentina two days prior, reportedly due to frustration with their prolonged stay in the country.
The National Criminal and Correctional Prosecutor's Office conducted an investigation, speaking to the women present in Payne's room before his death and hotel staff.
They concluded the singer was alone at the time of the fall and likely in a state of unconsciousness due to the position of his body and injuries sustained.
The autopsy revealed Payne's cause of death was from multiple traumas resulting in internal and external bleeding. His former One Direction bandmates and family expressed profound sadness over the loss.
As RadarOnline.com previously reported, authorities claim Payne's phone, which was removed from his hotel room, will be key to determining who may have supplied him with drugs.
Forensic teams reportedly retrieved a whiskey bottle, lighter and his personal mobile phone from the building's internal courtyard where the singer's body was found.
Local police have yet to confirm what the substances found in the room are and are due to run tests on them shortly.
The forthcoming toxicology report is expected to provide further insights into the events surrounding the incident.
