Yes, the bank is allowed to follow the buyer’s instructions to stop payment to the seller under the principles governing the letter of credit payment but only when the buyer will show the apples that were rotten to the bank. If the apples were found rotten after checking by the bank then the advising bank will send the letter to the issuing bank and will inform that the buyer is stopping the payment to the seller.
