Police find large sum of money during traffic stop at Brisbane house, totaling $1 million.
In a recent incident, police in Brisbane's south stumbled upon a shocking discovery. The authorities came across multiple packages containing a staggering amount of cash, totaling over $1 million, believed to be profits from drug sales. The discovery was made during a routine stop of a vehicle as part of an ongoing drug trafficking investigation by the Queensland Police.

Following the car stop, the police proceeded to search a residence in Rocklea on the same day. It was there that they found a large duffle bag from the popular brand Nike, containing bundles of cash meticulously sealed in vacuum packs. Along with the cash, the police also confiscated drug paraphernalia, a firearm, and ammunition from the property.

A 26-year-old man from New South Wales was arrested and charged with several offenses, including drug trafficking, unlawful possession of a weapon, and dealing in large sums of illegal money. He was remanded in custody and is scheduled to appear in the Brisbane Magistrates Court on October 18.

Detective Senior Sergeant Justin Suffolk emphasized the police's unwavering commitment to disrupting and preventing drug trafficking. He warned that anyone involved in the distribution of illicit substances will be targeted and held accountable for their actions.

The investigation is still ongoing, and the police are urging anyone with information to come forward and assist in their efforts. This can be done by contacting Policelink through the online suspicious activity form available on the Queensland Police website or by calling 131 444 at any time of the day.

The discovery of such a large amount of suspected drug money is a significant blow to the illegal drug trade, and the police are determined to continue their efforts in disrupting and preventing these criminal activities. With the community's help, they hope to put an end to drug trafficking and make our streets safer for everyone.
