Millions found in raid

London: Detectives investigating a £53 million robbery on Friday found millions of pounds at a London industrial estate. Kent police said it was not clear how much had been found at a car repair shop in Graves Yard in Welling, where a 43-year-old man was arrested, as it was still being counted and has to undergo forensic tests, but some sources put it at £7 million. ``Bags containing the cash are being examined by police. Until this thorough examination is completed we will not know exactly how much money has been seized but we do know it amounts to several million pounds,'' a spokesman said. The money was recovered during a planned raid by Kent and Scotland Yard officers at an ENR Cars vehicle repair shop.
