Better ask the bank if both the adult siblings can sign the letter of disclaimer on behalf of the minor sibling in such case. Going to the court for getting the official guardianship of the minor by the adult siblings will take lot of time and money. Most of the banks in such cases do cooperate and release the funds of the deceased account holders to the legal heirs on minimum documentation and formalities.

Why this question as to disclaimer?

Under which provision of law/rule the bank can seek alleged "disclaimer" on behalf of minor?
How can the other siblings get the share of minor?
Consult a local lawyer if the story has "some" truth, which I find it as hypothetical.
