His mother, Narinder Kaur, killed herself in Punjab after learning of the news, said tribuneindia.com.
Nath, a food delivery driver from Brampton, was working in the Britannia-Creditview Rds. area of Mississauga just after 2 a.m. on July 9 when he was carjacked and injured.
He died in hospital on July 14.
“His mother Narinder Kaur was reportedly not informed about his demise ever since. As she got to know about it today ahead of the arrival of his body late this evening, she could not bear the shocking news,” tribuneindia reported Friday. “She died by suicide by consuming some poisonous substance even before seeing her son’s body.”

Nath came to Canada in 2021 to study business management.
A friend of the family has started a GoFundMe campaign.
“Gurvinder Nath, a hardworking individual who was simply trying to make a living, fell victim to a horrifying act of violence while working. May his soul rest in eternal peace, and may his family find strength and solace in the outpouring of support from their community,” the campaign says.
“Please donate as much as you can to send his body back home and help his family. After clearing all the medical bills and funeral expenses, the rest of the money will be sent to his father’s account.”
The campaign had raised more than $126,000 as of Sunday afternoon.
