Bank Lost SR5 Million Because of Dress

DAMMAM, 1 August 2005 — A local Saudi bank in Dammam lost a very important customer because of the security guard interference, Okaz reported. The customer came to the bank wearing jeans and shirt and wanted to open an account and deposit SR5 million. The security guard prevented him from entering the bank saying that he would not allow him in because he was not wearing the national dress. Stunned and upset at the behavior of the security guard, the potential customer contacted the branch manger to tell him that he was about to deposit the money in their bank but he changed his mind.

Apparently a man was not permittied to deposit SR 5 Million in bank just because he was not wearing the saudi national dress. Stupidity at its best i must say and i wonder what happend to the guard's job after the man complained to bank manager. Next time i go to bank with a forged cheque, i think i will wear a saudi national dress. This may stop authorities from suspicion and should aviod any security checks. Oooh the magical saudi "national" dress.
