UPDATE 12.15pm: CHANNEL 9 News has been forced to admit that it faked footage of a man dumping $100,000 in a toilet cubicle.

Last night s edition of Nine News reported that cash totalling $100,000 had been found stuffed in a toilet bin.

Nine s story showed what appeared to be security photos of the man entering the disabled toilet at Docklands and dumping his money stash.

However, Nine has now confessed that it dramatised the footage, although a spokesman insisted today that there was no intention to pretend the footage was real.

We categorically refute the assertion that Channel Nine attempted to fake footage, he said.

There was never any intention to deceive or mislead our viewers. This was nothing more than a production oversight. The word reconstruction should have been displayed.

Nine reporter Brendan Roberts says the images used in the story were a re-creation of events.

There is no camera footage actually in the toilet itself, Roberts told 3AW this morning.

The person who was responsible was probably a lot thinner and of a different ethnicity (to the images used on Nine News).

The man spent five hours stuffing $100,000 into a bin in a disabled toilet in a bizarre incident which has left police puzzled.

Cleaners discovered the cash in $100 notes stuffed in the bin on Wednesday night.

He walked from the building five hours later.

Police have appealed for the mystery man to come forward.

Detective Sgt Mark McCrann told Channel Nine the incident was ''quite unusual''.

''There's only one person that can tell us why that cash was left in the toilets,'' he said yesterday.

''We'd certainly want him to come forward and we're certainly interested in having a chat with him.''

The money is likely to be declared the proceeds of crime and will be seized by the state of Victoria.
