Police said Sunday that Tahmid Hasib Khan, 22, was acquitted of the charges and released on bail. His brother, Talha Khan, who is in Toronto, told CBC News he doesn't know the circumstance of Tahmid's release, calling it "complex." Khan's cousin Ali Faiyaz, who lives in Dhaka, confirms the Toronto student is faring well and is with his parents while out on bail. Based on these findings and a lack of other evidence of Khan's involvement in the attack, a court in Dhaka acquitted him of terrorism, Masudur Rahman, spokesman of the Dhaka Metropolitan Police told Reuters. Karim, a 47-year-old engineer, was at the café with his family to celebrate his daughter's 13th birthday.
