The president of Canada’s Maritime Sikh Society has spoken out following news of the death of an Indian woman at a Halifax Walmart last week.
“The community has been shocked by the whole incident,” Harjit Seyan told Global News. “The immediate family is absolutely shocked. They are in a kind of a trauma. We are really sorry to hear of such a tragic event,” he added.
Seyan says members of the Sikh Society sprung into action upon hearing the news, offering comfort, hot meals, and to set up a fundraiser for the woman’s immediate family.
Halifax police confirmed on Tuesday that the 19-year-old employee was found dead inside of the Walmart’s walk-in bakery oven. According to authorities, the victim - who recently moved to Canada from India - was found Saturday night and an investigation of the “complex” incident is ongoing.
