Based on the description, it appears that neither friend can be charged. There was no bank robbery attempt. They went there but did not disturb anyone. When one of them arrived at the teller, and she asked how he was doing, all he said was, "oh, I forgot my passbook," which to me sounded normal. He was neither aggressive nor offended the teller or interrupted the bank's other clients. Just because he walked into the bank does not mean they want to rob it. Plus, one of the friends stayed in the car while his friend went inside, so he did nothing wrong.
At no point did the friend try to rob the bank. No evidence was found. The bank authority did not file a complaint about the bank robbery. Neither a gun nor a threat was present. As far as the law is concerned, no crime has been committed. Morally and ethically, it is a crime and wrong to have such a motive.
They can say there is no evidence against them, and the bank authority has not charged them. It is easy for them to beat the charge. They may say that they went to the bank to look for a friend or ask for a loan or anything else. However, if police look into the case and check the bank's cameras, it will seem suspicious why he went to the teller and left fast, but they can always say they forgot their documents. They should not have to look at the cameras because there was no actual complaint from the bank.
