Quebec entrepreneur Daniel Langlois and his partner were reportedly found lifeless in a burned vehicle in Dominica, Caribbean, where they owned a luxury hotel complex.
The macabre discovery was made last Friday, as reported by local media Dominica News Online, which stated that the victims were Daniel Langlois and Dominique Marchand, owners of the Coulibri Ridge Eco Resort – a self-sufficient hotel complex in the Dominican Republic.
According to local media, the couple were missing and the charred vehicle matched the one they were driving. The bodies were found after authorities were alerted that a vehicle was on fire.
Unfortunately, due to the size of the fire, the bodies cannot be identified, Dominica News Online reported, saying authorities were able to link the Quebecers based on circumstantial evidence.
However, the investigation moved quickly and police arrested three suspects in the case, according to another local media outlet, Dom767.
Note that Daniel Langlois was made a Knight of the National Order of Quebec in 1999 and an Officer of the Order of Canada in 2000.
