Statement 2: If two documents cannot be obtained, the bank may accept one document provided a physical verification of the premises is conducted. Statement 3: For a partnership firm's Current Account, the bank must verify the identity and address of all partners and power of attorney holders. Statement 4: If a partner dies, the bank must immediately freeze all debits, prohibiting surviving partners from withdrawing any funds for winding up.

- 1Only Statement 1 and Statement 5 are correct while the others lack regulatory backing.
