The haul of designer handbags continues.
Following initial reports yesterday of police raiding a double-storey bungalow in Precinct 10, Putrajaya, believed to be in connection with the 1MDB case, it is now learnt that 40 luxury handbags were seized in the raid. Other items seized included branded shoe and jewellery.
The raid conducted by policemen from the Bukit Aman Commercial Crime Investigation Department was confirmed by Federal Commercial Crime Investigation Department director Datuk Seri Amar Singh, according to the New Straits Times.
The house, located just 200 metres from Seri Perdana, belonged to the Property Management Division of the Prime Minister’s Department.
It was used as senior government officers’ quarters and the last occupant was one of Najib’s former private secretaries.
Reportedly, a pensioner who stayed nearby said the bungalow had been empty for the past year.
Stacks of boxes could be seen in the living room as police sifted through their contents.
The police team also searched another house in Precinct 11.
In previous raids on Najib-linked properties, police seized RM114 million in 26 foreign currencies as well as luxury goods.
