Gold bullion was amongst a £2m haul seized from suspected money launderers travelling from Manchester Airport . Seven bars embossed with "Suisse 1 kilo" and worth £700,000 were recovered from a car left at the airport.

Police were tipped off after a vehicle was handed over to a drop-off concierge parking service at the airport. An employee felt there was something suspicious about the car and its occupants and called GMP.

The force was alerted at 11.40pm on Thursday last week and inside the vehicle, officers found the gold bars.
