Neville Wanniarachchi, who was the former Chief Security official of then president Mahinda Rajapaksa, was released on bail by Colombo Chief Magistrate Gihan Pilapitiya over five cases filed against him by the Bribery Commission on non assets declaration charges.

Commission charged him over not revealing his assets and liabilities from 2010 to 2015 and filed five cases separately for each year.

He appeared in court on a notice issued earlier by the Magistrate over the allegations.

Subsequently, the suspect was released on a cash bail of Rs. 10,000 with two sureties of Rs. one million each for every case.

The cases were put off for January 13.
