24-year-old Indian student robbed, violently assaulted, killed in Canada

According to media sources, a 24-year-old Indian student who worked as a food delivery partner in Canada was slain after being viciously abused during a tragic carjacking.

Gurvinder Nath was delivering pizza at 2:10 a.m. on July 9 between Mississauga’s Britannia and Creditview roads when he was confronted and attempted to steal his truck, according to CTV News.

“Investigators do believe that there are multiple suspects involved and that the food order was placed as a means of luring the driver to this specific area,” Inspector Phil King of Peel Regional Police’s Homicide Bureau said, adding that investigators have obtained an audio recording of the Pizza Pizza order placed before the attack.

According to police, after Nath arrived, he was “violently assaulted” and seriously injured by a suspect who robbed him of his vehicle and fled the area. Several witnesses came to his aid and sought for assistance before Nath was transported to a trauma center and confirmed dead on July 14.

According to the CBC, Siddhartha Nath, Consul General of India in Toronto, said Nath’s death is a “heartrending loss” and expressed condolences to family members, friends, and the larger community. He stated that the consulate general called his family following his death.

“It was heartening for me to see how the community responded, came together both online and physically to support the family in this time of grief,” the Consul General said.

“Of course, nothing can make good the loss, but it will be some solace to the grieving family and it’s also a signal of the spirit of the community because it is in times like this when the spirit and the solidarity and the sense of empathy is tested.”
