A Dhaka court on Tuesday (September 29) extended the bail of actress Tanjin Tisha in a case filed over alleged fraud and breach of trust involving a saree worth Tk 28,800.
The court also deferred the hearing on whether charges would be framed in the case.
Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Kamal Uddin passed the order following a petition by Tisha’s lawyers, her counsel Nihar Hossain Faruk confirmed.
Tisha had earlier surrendered before the court and secured bail on August 13. Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Md Jewel Rana granted her bail after a hearing that day. The court had earlier issued a summons for her appearance on July 12 after reviewing the investigation report.
The case centres on a saree obtained from online fashion page Apponia. According to the complaint, the saree was priced at Tk 28,800 and Tisha had agreed to use it for promotional purposes and pay for it. The complainant alleged that she later stopped communicating with the page.
Apponia administrator Aminul Islam filed the case against Tisha on November 5, 2025, accusing her of fraud and breach of trust. Following a court order, the Dhaka Metropolitan Police’s Detective Branch investigated the allegations and submitted its report, after which the court issued a summons.
Tisha has denied the allegations, saying she did not obtain or misappropriate the saree through fraud. After securing bail in August, she said the case contained several false claims against her and that she appeared before the court out of respect for the law.
The complainant, however, maintains that Tisha failed to fulfil her commitments regarding the saree’s promotion and payment.
The hearing on framing charges, scheduled for Tuesday, has now been deferred to a later date.
