Bank manager receives explosive
General Manager of Deutsche Bank Josef Akkerman has received a package of white powder from an anonymous person, reports Bloomberg.
Police say the powder would explode, if the package was opened.
Bank employees managed to prevent the possible assassination attempt against Akkerman. They suspected the package since Akkerman had never received a package like that before and took it to the police.
Josef Akkerman has been heading the bank since 2002 and will step down in May 2012.
Unlike previous manager Alfred Herhausen, Akkerman was lucky. Herhausen was killed in 1989 in a car explosion.
