Bangalore: Police Thursday set Nov 24 as the deadline for all banks to provide full security at their ATM kiosks across the city in wake of a brutal attack on a woman in an unguarded ATM Tuesday.
"We have set Nov 24, 4 p.m. as deadline for all state-run and private banks to deploy 24-hour security guards at their ATMs in the city, with functioning closed circuit television (CCTV) cameras inside and outside kiosks and a burglary alarm," city Police Commissioner Raghavendra Auradkar told reporters here.
Asserting that the deadline was mandatory, Auradkar said no transaction would be allowed after Monday 4 p.m. from any ATM if the directive was not complied with any bank.
"If any ATM is found without the arrangements stipulated in the order under the police act, its kiosk will be shut and transactions stopped forthwith," Auradkar said.
