BUENOS AIRES (Reuters) - The body of pop star Liam Payne, who died in Buenos Aires last month, has been taken from the city's British cemetery on route to the airport, a senior cemetery source said on Wednesday, signaling the former One Direction singer's likely repatriation.

The body, which has been held while local authorities completed toxicological and other laboratory reports, was taken around 6 a.m. local time (0900 GMT), the source told Reuters, asking not to be named given the sensitivity of the case.
