LIAM Payne’s body could take weeks to be returned to his grieving family and be laid to rest in the UK, it has been claimed.
The One Direction star, 31, tragically fell to his death from the third floor of his hotel in Buenos Aires on Wednesday.
Liam’s devastated dad has been reportedly trying to get his son’s body back home in the UK as soon as possible to lay him to rest.
But sources close to the investigation reportedly told Argentine newspaper Clarín that the singer’s body will remain in the country “between 10 and 15 days” as cops are still waiting for key test results.
Sources from the British Embassy told the outlet: “We are supporting Liam Payne’s family and are in contact with local authorities.”
