The death of a young Halifax woman whose body was found last month in a Walmart’s walk-in oven was not suspicious and there was no evidence of foul play, police said Monday.

Nineteen-year-old Gursimran Kaur’s Oct. 19 death in the store’s bakery is now the subject of a separate workplace investigation led by Nova Scotia’s Labour Department.
