Police discover £100,000 in a bag for life during money laundering crackdown

Around £100,000 in cash has been found in a supermarket bag for life in a crackdown on money laundering.

Cops made the discovery in Oldham in an overnight operation last night. Police stopped a vehicle in the town at 11.30pm on Monday (July 11) under Operation Falcon — GMP’s crackdown on money laundering and organised crime in the region.

Following the find, a 29-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of money laundering by GMP’s Money Laundering Team and Specialist Operations. The car was searched and around £100,000 was found and seized in a bag as part of the laundering team's Operation Falcon which only launched around a month ago.
