07/01/2005 - 12:34:09

The Northern Bank in Belfast, from which £22m (€31.3m) was stolen before Christmas, is to withdraw all of its banknotes from circulation and reissue them in a different colour, chief constable Hugh Orde has said.

"The (stolen) money will not be worth anything when that takes place," he said.

Northern Bank is due to make a statement later today.
