Summary
Police have ruled out foul play in the death of Gursimran Kaur, a 19-year-old Walmart employee found dead in a walk-in bakery oven at a Halifax, Canada, store on October 19.
After interviews, video reviews, and collaboration with labor and medical officials, investigators concluded no one else was involved.
Kaur’s mother, also a Walmart employee, discovered her daughter after a frantic search.
The store remains closed, and the oven is being removed. Workplace safety officials are now leading the investigation.
Lock-out/Tag-out is the same around the world, right?
Supposedly this oven had a (broken) internal release. It also can’t swing closed on its own and needs to be pushed fairly hard to latch closed. And lastly, there is no way to turn it on from the inside; You need to activate it from outside after latching the door.
It was the combination of all three of these things that had people immediately suspecting foul play. Because there’s no way she could have turned it on while alone; Someone else had to have closed her in there and turned it on, and the broken internal release meant she couldn’t escape.
Has this been credibly mentioned anywhere?
It is the law in this area of the world and is effective.
More like lock-in/bake-in in this case…
(Hope this family sues Walmart for big money)
