The video shows Taliban fighters sitting around two suitcases stuffed with cash and gold bricks. Some of the fighters can also be seen clicking pictures of the piles of cash in the 1-minute 26-second video.

Muttaqi claimed that a total of six and a half million US dollars, along with 18 gold bricks, were recovered from Amrullah Saleh s residence.
