Former Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of SriLankan Airlines, Kapila Chandrasena, was found dead at a residence in Colpetty today (08).
According to Police Media Spokesman, ASP F. U. Wootler, Kapila Chandrasena is suspected to have died by suicide.
He further said that the Colpetty Police is conducting further investigations into the incident.
Kapila Chandrasena, who was recently in remand custody over the Airbus deal under SriLankan Airlines, was released on bail recently.
However, he was ordered to be arrested and produced before the Colombo Magistrate’s Court yesterday after the Bribery Commission sought the cancellation of his bail.
According to court proceedings, the Bribery Commission filed a motion before the Colombo Chief Magistrate’s Court requesting that the bail previously granted to Chandrasena be revoked.
