Report: 11 hours to count 11 bags of cash from Pavilion raid, 15 more to go

Police, after 11 hours, only managed to count 11 bags of cash seized during a raid on three Pavilion Residences units last Friday.
The 11 bags contained tens of millions of ringgit, according to a New Straits Times report.
The report said the counting began at 10am until 9pm today and there were still 15 bags of cash to go.
According to the report, Bukit Aman Commercial Crime Investigation Department (CCID) director Amar Singh confirmed that the counting process but declined to elaborate.
Last Friday, police raided three condo units linked to former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak as part of the 1MDB investigation.
Police seized 72 bags of cash and jewellery as well as 284 boxes of designer handbags.
The report said 26 out of the 72 bags were transported to Menara 238 in Kuala Lumpur, where the CCID is headquartered, for counting.
As only 11 bags were counted, the report said the remaining 15 bags will be transferred back to Bukit Aman for safekeeping.
The 11 bags of cash which have already been counted were sent to Bank Negara, where another round of counting will take place, said the report.
"The process is especially tedious because CCID police officers need to record the serial number of each note.
"Another factor adding to the length of time needed to complete the process was the fact that there are several different currencies involved," said the report.

Malaysiakini is unable to independently verify the NST report.
