This is the best summary I could come up with:


No arrests have been made, but investigators have located the site where the fire began and Shane said traces of an accelerant were detected.

The fire raised concerns about illegal rental units in Old Montreal and other areas popular with tourists.

WATCH: Montreal police say major crimes working with arson unit to investigate fire:

But Alexandre Bergevin, Benamor's lawyer, said in an interview on Monday that the criminal investigation into the fire was good news for his client because it showed that someone else was to blame.

A coroner's public inquiry, which was supposed to shed light on the conditions in the building and what could have been done to prevent the deaths, is now postponed while criminal investigators do their work, Shane said.

"We are heartbroken and this news has reopened our wounds," Khan said, reached by phone in Detroit where the family lives and where Saniya had been pursuing a master's degree in public health.


The original article contains 652 words, the summary contains 154 words. Saved 76%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
