Eighteen months after the horrific accident shocked an Indian-origin family in Canada, Mandeep Kaur, the mother of 19-year-old Gursimran Kaur, who was burnt to death inside a Walmart oven, has broken her silence and expressed her dissatisfaction with the investigation. Immediately after the tragedy, Halifax police denied anything suspicious. Now the Nova Scotia Department of Labor announced that they found no safety violations in Gursiran’s death. The discovery prompted Mandeep, who worked at the same Walmart, to break her silence and tell about the horror. Speaking to DailyMail. Mandeep said that he did not find any remains of his daughter. “His body was not there. I couldn’t see it,” Mandeep said. She still says she doesn’t know what happened. On the night of 19 October 2024, both mother and daughter were on shift. Mandeep was trying to contact the daughter but could not reach him through text or phone. But she assumed her daughter was either with a client or on vacation. But she became worried when two managers told her that they too had not seen Gursimran for some time. When they arrived at the bakery, one of the managers noticed a “black-brown liquid resembling tar” leaking from the back of the oven, the liquid coming from Gursimran’s body, which was lying next to the baking rack. Mandeep collapsed and was taken away when emergency responders arrived. Mandeep said investigators did not tell him how Gursimran got inside the oven and how she could not get out. The mother doesn’t know how long her daughter was inside the oven, or whether she screamed for help. “They don’t know. They have no evidence. No concrete results,” he said. Mandeep is convinced that his daughter did not end her life. Gursimran was a happy-go-lucky girl, planning to study medicine and was even given a package a few days after her death, the mother said. After the service at their local gurudwara, the family returned to India, where Gursimran’s ashes were scattered. The Walmart location was closed for four months following the death, during which time the bakery was renovated and relocated to another part of the store. New ovens are not walk-in.
