Secret stash: One of several pictures circulating on social media purportedly showing money found with some paper in a plastic bag among rubbish on the streets during the flood clean-up.

GEORGE TOWN: Gold and money were part of the things which were washed out when murky water invaded people’s homes.

Several photos showing these have been circulating and one of them even showed the hand and torso of someone wearing a shirt resembling that of a Seberang Prai Municipal Council (MPSP) worker holding an assortment of gold chains and bracelets, said to be found among the rubbish during the flood clean-up.
