NCP leader Nahid Islam has said that some media is attempting to defame individuals who were at the forefront of the mass uprising whil visiting Tahrima Jannat Surovi's house. Tahrima Jannat Surovi's incident was part of that continued effort to malign such individuals.

Nahid made this allegation while visiting residence of Tahrima, who was granted bail and released from jail on Monday night. "Justice was not served to Tahrima Jannat Surovi. The whole matter was fabricated."

Earlier on Monday morning, police produced Tahrima before a court, seeking a seven-day remand in connection with a case filed by a journalist over alleged abduction and extortion.

After the hearing, the court granted a two-day remand. As the news spread, students staged demonstrations protesting the remand order. Later, a revision petition was filed, and the court granted bail to Tahrima on Monday night.
