ANKARA- METU Rectorate did not accept students to the campus on the grounds of not having a permit, before the lock down.

 

Middle East Technical University (METU) students were asked for permits before the curfew, while entering the school for May 1 Labour and Solidarity Day. Even though the lock down starts at 19.00 today, students were not allowed in the school with the decision of the ODTU Rectorate.

 

Students continue to wait at the campus gates.
