Halifax Police Confirm Non-Suspicious Death of Walmart Worker

The death of 19-year-old Gursimran Kaur, found inside a walk-in oven at a Walmart in Halifax on October 19, has been ruled not suspicious by the Halifax Regional Police. Kaur, an Indian-origin employee who worked at Walmart with her mother, was discovered by her mother after not being seen for an hour. Police investigations, including video reviews and interviews, found no evidence of foul play. A GoFundMe campaign by the Sikh community raised over $194,000 to support Kaur's family, facilitating the travel of her father and brother from India. The Nova Scotia Department of Labour issued a stop-work order for the bakery, which was later lifted after confirming equipment safety. Despite the conclusion, the case has left unresolved questions and public speculation, prompting police to urge sensitivity towards Kaur's grieving family.
