Police say death of young woman found in Halifax Walmart walk-in oven not suspicious

Halifax police have determined that the death of a young woman whose body was found in a Walmart walk-in oven was not suspicious and did not involve foul play.

The death of the 19-year-old store bakery employee was reported Oct. 19.

Halifax Regional Police say they have informed the woman’s family of their findings.

A Sikh organization confirmed that Gursimran Kaur’s body was found by her mother, who had worked with her daughter at the Mumford Road store for around two years.

The Maritime Sikh Society says Kaur, a Sikh woman from India, immigrated to Canada with her mother.

Last month, the Nova Scotia Department of Labor lifted a stop-work order after officials determined the store was in compliance with safety standards.
