Well no need to pay bribes when the police can forcibly take your money, and now even suck it right from your bank account.

Of course, you can get it back, but it's up to you to prove that it's your money that they've just confiscated from you. Hope you don't need to hire a lawyer to get your money back since now you have no money.
