The High Court (HC) on Sunday ordered to keep two Japanese children with their father, whose parents got divorced earlier in Tokyo.
Besides, their mother will be allowed to stay with the kids for ten days after visiting Bangladesh three times every year, the HC said.
A virtual bench of Justice M Enayetur Rahim and Justice Md Mostafizur Rahman passed the order.
The High Court on August 31 ordered Sharif Imran and Nakano Eriko to live at a Gulshan flat together for 15 days with their two daughters.
The court had asked Department of Social Services to look over the matter and the Commissioner of Dhaka Metropolitan Police is being asked to ensure the safety of this family.
The court finally came up with its order as the estranged couple failed to reach a consensus on where and with whom their two daughters Makano Jasmine Malika, 11, and Makano Laila Lina, 9, will live, in spite of repeated instructions from the court.
"We want the two children to live in a family atmosphere. Please both of you think positively," the court had said during the hearing.
Nakano Eriko filed the writ on August 19, pleading for the High Court directions to get back her two daughters from their father Sharif Imran.
The High Court on August 23, asked the authorities concerned to keep the two children at the Tejgaon Victim Support Centre in a good environment. The High Court had allowed their parents to visit them at the centre.
