The Ministry of Education has launched an investigation into claims that students performed Nazi salutes at a secondary school in Famagusta.
A ministry source confirmed to newspaper “K” that the inquiry is underway following a complaint from the Famagusta District Committee of the left-wing party AKEL.
In a statement, AKEL condemned what it called a “serious and disturbing” incident at the Erinis kai Eleftherias (Peace and Freedom) Gymnasium-Lyceum in Deryneia-Sotira. The party said students were photographed performing Nazi salutes “with the tolerance of a teacher.”
AKEL shared a related photo in a Facebook post, claiming that a teacher encouraged students to continue posing with the salute despite objections from a colleague.
