A Dhaka court on Sunday passed an order that the custody of the two children will remain to Eriko Nakano, a Japanese citizen.
Dhaka District and Sessions Judge Habibur Rahman Bhuiya dismissed an appeal filed by the father of two children and gave the order.
Eriko Nakano's lawyer Shishir Moni said that the court ruled in favour of the mother by rejecting the appeal of Imran Sharif, the father of two children.
A Dhaka family court on July 29 gave custody of two children to Eriko Nakano.
Judge Durrana Rahman of Dhaka Family Court pronounced the judgment, saying the mother can take the two children daughter Makano Jasmine Malika and Makano Laila Lina to Japan with her if she wants.
The court said it reached the decision, focusing on the well-being of the two children.
Eriko Nakano married Bangladesh-born US citizen Imran Sharif in 2008 in Japan.
They became parents of three children after that. In 2020, Eriko filed a divorce petition with a Japanese court. Imran later took two of their daughters with him and came to Bangladesh.
Eriko too came to Bangladesh and filed a petition with the apex court for the custody of the two children.
