Former Chairman of the Walallawita Pradeshiya Sabha, Udeni Athukorala, who was granted bail by the Colombo Magistrate's Court, has been remanded.

This is due to his failure to fulfill the bail conditions.

He was arrested in connection with an incident of accepting bribes between 2018 and 2022.

Colombo Chief Magistrate Thanuja Lakmali ordered the release of the former chairman on 5 surety bonds of Rs. 500,000 each.
