The Manisa Vocational and Technical Anatolian High School, located in the Şehzadeler district of Manisa, has come to the agenda with a new allegation.

According to a report by the Cumhuriyet newspaper, the school's assistant principal banned students from playing chess during breaks and free time.

It was stated that while warning the students, the assistant principal described chess as "gambling" and a "devil's invention," and subsequently had the chess boards confiscated.

LIBRARY CLOSED, BOARDS CONFISCATED

It was reported that the school's library has been closed for months and that students were playing chess to pass the time during breaks.

Following the ban decision, it was stated that the chess boards were removed by the school administration.

It was reported that students reacted to the situation, and that unions and some parents filed objections with the school administration.

The same school had previously come to public attention with another incident that occurred before the October 29 Republic Day.

At that time, it was alleged that the "Nutuk" books in the school were thrown into the trash, and the incident had caused reactions.

It was claimed that the person who threw the books in question into the trash was the same assistant principal.
