Property seized under a writ of attachment or of sequestration may be released to the plaintiff upon proof of his ownership and upon furnishing security as required by Article 3508. All costs incurred as a result of the seizure shall be paid by the plaintiff prior to the release of the property. A written agreement to hold the seizing authority harmless for wrongful seizure of property which is not seized to enforce a security interest, mortgage, lien or privilege may be substituted in lieu of security at the discretion of the sheriff.
