– Judge determines man responsible for allegedly setting woman ablaze at Kipling Station.
Accident – Death – Obituary News :
An Ontario judge is poised to make a critical decision regarding the criminal responsibility of a man accused of setting a woman ablaze at Kipling station in 2022. The ruling is expected to shed light on the tragic incident that shook the community.
Critical Hearing Scheduled for Tuesday
A crucial hearing is scheduled for Tuesday at 10 a.m., where a judge will deliberate on a “Not Criminally Responsible” application submitted by the defence team. This application will play a pivotal role in determining the legal standing of the accused in the harrowing case.
The incident, which occurred on June 17, involved a man dousing a woman with a flammable substance on a TTC bus before igniting her in what authorities described as a random and horrific attack. The victim, identified as 28-year-old Nyima Dolma, sustained severe second and third-degree burns as a result of the assault and tragically succumbed to her injuries after nearly three weeks of battling for her life in hospital.
A Life of Service Cut Short
In a heartfelt tribute to Dolma, her family set up a GoFundMe campaign to honour her memory. Describing her as a dedicated professional caregiver, they highlighted her selfless commitment to serving others. Dolma’s untimely demise has left a void in the lives of those who knew and loved her.
The accused, 33-year-old Tenzin Norbu from Toronto, was swiftly apprehended and is currently facing a slew of charges, including first-degree murder. The circumstances surrounding the attack suggest that Dolma and the alleged perpetrator had no prior acquaintance, making the incident all the more senseless and tragic.
