Two men who were arrested following the confiscation of £42,000 in Northern Bank notes have been released on bail as police investigations continue.
The arrests followed attempts to purchase small items, including magazines, using £100 notes at the Rushmere Shopping Centre in Craigavon, Co Armagh, on Sunday.
The money was recovered during searches of two houses and business premises in Banbridge, Co Down, yesterday.
A police spokesman said the cash was not being linked at this stage to last month's multi-million pound Northern Bank robbery in Belfast.
He said the money might be linked to other possible money laundering offences.
