Police have now managed to recover close to $40,000 of the new $100 bills that were stolen from a Suva bank earlier this month.
This follows a search conducted at the home of one of the security officers who was arrested in Nadi on Friday.
Upon searching the suspect's home police discovered $4,500 worth of the new $100 currency bills.
Another 46 new $100 bills were also recovered from various shops and individuals on Koro Island.
