Liam Payne allegedly ordered nine bottles of whisky and 13 grams of cocaine before his death on Oct. 16, TMZ reported on Tuesday.

According to the outlet, prosecutors claim the former One Direction singer was on a bender the day before his fatal fall from a third-story balcony in CasaSur Palermo Hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

In documents obtained by the outlet, national prosecutors mapped out a timeline of what allegedly happened, claiming that the bender kicked off when Payne ordered four bottles of whisky at around 10 p.m. on Oct. 15. He then ordered another five bottles at 6:36 a.m. on the 16th.

He also allegedly texted Rogelio “Roger” Nores at 7 a.m., saying, “Dude I think I’m going to f–k a hooker.” Two hours later, at 9:32 a.m., he allegedly texted Nores again asking for “6 grams,” presumably referring to cocaine.

Prosecutors claim that the Argentine businessman, who had previously identified himself as Payne’s manager, arrived at CasaSur for breakfast where the late singer drank whiskey.

While they were at breakfast, a maid was cleaning Payne’s hotel room which was allegedly all trashed before the singer returned, looking for something. He eventually then found a “white powder,” the maid claimed to prosecutors.

Fast forward to 11:32 a.m., two prostitutes allegedly showed up, though it’s unclear who called them. The two women claim to police that they had sex with Payne before he asked them for more cocaine. Payne allegedly refused to pay them and became enraged when they requested their money, punching the TV three times.

Page Six had previously reported that two women had been interviewed by cops after claiming they had been in the singer’s room before he died. However, they were not present at the time of his death.

By 2:00 p.m., prosecutors claim he allegedly asked a hotel employee for “another 7 grams for today.”

Per the documents, Nores came back to CasaSur at 3:45 p.m. to pay the prostitutes and 15 minutes later, hotel staff allegedly saw Payne “visibly drunk” with dilated pupils.

At 4:04 p.m., Nores left the hotel and a housekeeper allegedly heard Payne destroying his room. A hotel staffer allegedly tried to call Nores, but he didn’t pick up. However, by 4:25 p.m., the businessman texted Payne “How are you?” but it went unanswered.

Nores is one of the three people being charged with Payne’s death with prosecutors coming after him with abandonment. They claim that Nores had knowledge about the former boy bander falling off the wagon and had failed to tell his family about it.

In fact, Liam’s dad, Geoff Payne, told authorities that Nores volunteered to take care of Liam and arrange to put him in rehab in May.

Per the docs, Geoff told Nores that it was critical that Liam stayed busy and was never alone to sustain his sobriety.

However, Geoff allegedly knew something was wrong in September when Liam fired a bodyguard who was trying to stop him from using drugs. On Monday, it was revealed that a bodyguard had locked Liam in a Florida rental as he suspected the singer was on a bender. Liam, however, escaped by shimming down a hose on the balcony.

Nores has denied any involvement in his death and claims he was with Payne up until an hour before his death. The dad of one allegedly was fine when Nores left him.

However, there seems to be a bump in the road for prosecutors as a judge ruled that local prosecutors should be the ones to pursue abandonment cases — rather than the national prosecutors who are handling Liam’s case.

Although the national prosecutors tried to appeal this ruling, it was rejected and no local prosecutors have filed the charges.
