Sri Lanka Cricket’s (SLC) chief financial officer Piyal Nandana Dissanayake who was arrested by the CID in connection with an alleged financial fraud of USD 187,084, has been re-remanded until November 15.

The ruling was issued when the case was taken up before the Colombo Fort Magistrate court.

Court also ordered 19 organizations to submit details of the bank accounts registered under the name of him and his wife.

Meanwhile, Colombo Fort Magistrate Lanka Jayaratne rejected the bail application filed by Mr Dissanayake.

Mr. Dissanayake was arrested after SLC CEO Ashley De Silva filed a complaint with the Police over a fraudulent incident of SLC’s Media Rights Sponsorship Funds being transferred to an offshore account.

The Chief Financial Officer was arrested over financial fraud which occurred during the South African tour in Sri Lanka in July this year.
