Mother of Baby Whose Remains Were Found in Wooded Area Has Died: Halifax Police

Police say the mother died after a search found the newborn’s remains, and investigators say the case may lead to additional serious charges.

  • Sukhpreet Singh and Ramandeep Kaur face charges including concealing a body after police discovered newborn remains in a wooded area off Old Coach Road on Sunday, with the couple remaining in custody.
  • Halifax Regional Police launched an extensive search after a 23-year-old woman arrived at a Willett Street apartment in life-threatening condition on Friday, appearing to have just given birth but the newborn was nowhere to be found.
  • During a Thursday hearing, Singh and Kaur—in custody since Sunday—chose to forgo a bail hearing and consented to remain remanded until their next court appearance for election and plea on June 22.
  • Police confirmed Thursday the mother has died in hospital, while Crown attorney Paul Carver noted the potential for "additional very serious charges" as the investigation continues.
  • The Nova Scotia Medical Examiner Service is determining the cause and manner of death for both the infant and mother, with officials noting the process may take an extended period due to complexity.
