Police investigating the balcony hotel fall death of Liam Payne have spoken to three hotel staff and two esc*rts.
Prosecutors have also been questioning three employees at the Casa Sur hotel to reconstruct the incident, according to the Argentine outlet Clarin.
Police in the capital said Payne's hotel room had been 'in complete disarray' with 'various items broken' - adding that a whiskey bottle, lighter and mobile phone had been retrieved from the internal hotel courtyard where his body was found.
And in sworn statements to the Buenos Aires prosecutor, the two women, who are both 25 and admit to working in prostitution, said they were booked for a client at the CasaSur hotel through an online esc*rt service.
They arrived at the hotel at 11.30am and left at 4pm.
The pair said the singer did not consume drugs while he was with them and seemed normal.
'We drank alcohol,' the two women stated.
They gave their evidence on Wednesday night, just hours after Payne's body was discovered. A source said: 'The witnesses were co-operative, not only in their statements but also in offering access to their phones.'
The singer died from 25 injuries sustained in his fall that led to 'internal and external haemorrhaging', preliminary autopsy results have revealed with the 'injuries to his head alone enough to cause death.'
Medics announced that the singer 'did not adopt a reflex posture' during his fall suggesting he may have been fully or semi unconscious at the time of his death.
Last night, guests staying in the same hotel as Payne shared recollections of the moments leading up to his death including hearing 'violent noises' and a 'scream'.
