A Dhaka court has remanded Jerika Tasnim Disha, the young woman who was seen entering and leaving a bar in Uttara with former Air Force officer Tahsif Souri, for four days.

Disha, who was arrested from Dhaka's Kafrul area on Saturday night, was produced before Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Ripon Hossain's court on Sunday. Tongi River Police Station Inspector Firoz Uddin, investigating officer of the case, applied for her to be remanded for seven days.
