    Border agency staff seize 26,000 euros in woman's bra



    Port officials have confiscated 26,000 euros, which they found inside a woman's bra as she arrived on a ferry from Dublin.
    The Romanian woman claimed to UK Border Agency staff at Holyhead that the money was from the sale of a business in Ireland.
    The money was concealed in 500 euro notes.
    "Where we suspect cash may be linked with criminal activity, we have the power to seize it," said the agency.
    Officers had been carrying out checks at the ferry terminal on Anglesey.
    I bet the guard had a good feel to find that ;)

    Maybe the cash was taken during a hold-up!

    52 €500 notes wouldn't take up a huge amount of space.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,391 ✭✭✭✭mikom


    What did the bra say to the money when it was seized?

    "You go on ahead, I'll give these two a lift."

    26 K is so much more interesting than 26 B.

    [serious answer]
    It was confiscated by UK customs, If proven to be the proceeds of crime then the (Irish) CAB can claim it.

    If she can prove she earned it legitimately, then she can have it back, otherwise UK customs get to keep it.
    [/serious answer]

    I assume she had her assets checked as well but they didn't find any more money.

    Hard to use a 500 euro note in the UK now. Withdrawn from bank wholesalers just this month.
