Businessman Rogelio 'Roger' Nores said he saw Liam Payne three times on the day he tragically died - and left the Buenos Aires hotel 40 minutes before he fell from the balcony
Liam Payne 's friend Rogelio "Roger" Nores has denied being a suspect in the former One Direction star's death and insisted he didn't abandon the singer on the day he tragically fell from his hotel balcony in Argentina .
In a statement shared with the Daily Mail, Mr Nores added: "There were over 15 people at the hotel lobby chatting and joking with him when I left. I could have never imagined something like this would happen." He also said he gave his statement to the prosecutor on October 17 - but said he hasn't spoken to any police officer or prosecutor ever since then.
In 2018, he made it onto Forbes' 30 Under 30 - Energy list as the CEO of StoneWay Capital. In 2022, his company was later acquired by SCC Power. It is believed Mr Nores and Liam met at a house party in London, hosted by Edward Enninful, former editor-in-chief of British Vogue, in 2020. He said: "Liam stayed at my friend's ranch down in Palm Beach and since the first day he arrived he was monitored and treated by professional doctors who specialise in addictions. He stayed fully clean without access to any hard drug during his whole stay.
