Gurgaon, July 4 (IBNS): The body of 19-year-old Tarishi Jain, who was killed in Dhaka's Gulshan hotel after being taken hostage by terrorists on Friday evening, was cremated in Gurgaon on Monday evening.
Several central and state ministers paid tributes to her when the body arrived from Dhaka on Monday.
 
Tarishi passed out from American School Dhaka and was a student at UC Berkeley.
 
She was one among the 20 people killed by heavily armed terrorists after being taken hostage at a restaurant in Bangladesh capital city Dhaka on Friday evening.
 
The people were kept hostage for nearly 10 hours in Dhaka's upscale restaurant Gulshan. The stand-off between Army and terrorists came to an end on Saturday morning.
 
The operation left six terrorists killed as well.
 
As the operation came to an end, 13 captives, including three foreigners, were rescued.
 
According to Bangladesh government, it was not terror group ISIS but all local terrorists responsible for the brutal siege attack in Dhaka's upscale restaurant Gulshan,
 
The hostages were taken by members of a homegrown Bangladeshi militant group and not followers of the Islamic State of Syria and Iraq, a senior minister of Bangladesh had told media.
