Dr Satyapal is being “debriefed” by the Bangladesh police and security agencies,
along with the dozen or so others who were rescued or escaped, to get as much information as possible.

it was not just coincidence that both Tarishi and Dr Satyapal were at Holey Artisan Bakery on a Friday night
. “It was, in a sense, something closer to home…
There are not too many spaces in Dhaka where you can feel home.
This cafe was one of them.

It was like any place in Delhi’s Khan Market.
Any one of us could have been there,” he told The Sunday Express.
Tarishi’s death was first revealed by External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj in a series of tweets, saying,
“I am extremely pained to share that the terrorists have killed Tarushi (the spelling was later found to be Tarishi), an Indian girl who was taken hostage in the terror attack in Dhaka
… I have spoken to her father Shri Sanjeev Jain and conveyed our deepest condolences.
The country is with them in this hour of grief. We are arranging visa for the family.”
The tweets came around the same time
as Tarishi’s body was identified by her parents at the Combined Military Hospital in Dhaka.

Dhaka’s oasis of calm, left shaken
“They were absolutely heart-broken…
It was one of the most difficult moments for us,” an Indian diplomat who was with them said.
Tarishi’s relatives are flying down on Sunday to be with the family. Her last rites are expected to take place in India.
At Firozabad in western Uttar Pradesh,
where Tarishi’s extended family stays, relatives have been streaming to her uncle Rajeev Jain’s place.
Rajeev is the elder brother of Sanjeev.
Another of Tarishi’s uncles and a paternal aunt live in Firozabad.
Rajeev said;
Tarishi had come to Firozabad on Diwali last year.
“None of us thought it was the last time we would see her. She was a bright student and a loving daughter,” said Rajeev, who lives in Firozabad’s Suhag Nagar.
Sanjeev left Firozabad more than two decades back and both his children were born and grew up in Bangladesh,
said Rajeev.
Condemning the terror attack,
Prime Minister Narendra Modi tweeted,
“The attack in Dhaka has pained us beyond words.
I spoke to PM Sheikh Hasina & strongly condemned the despicable
attack.
India stands firmly with our sisters & brothers of Bangladesh in this hour of grief.
My thoughts are with the bereaved families.
I pray that those who are injured recover quickly.”
In other tweets, Swaraj said
India’s Deputy High Commissioner in Dhaka Adarsh Swaika had been with Tarishi’s family since Friday.
“I spoke to Tarishi’s father and offered him all assistance
We are coordinating with Tarishi’s uncle Rakesh Jain.”
