A building set to be used during the upcoming 2011 Winter Universiade in Turkey’s eastern province of Erzurum has been closed down for not being properly licensed, Doğan news agency, or DHA, reported Wednesday.
A building at the Palandöken Ski Center containing a health clinic, a laboratory where doping tests were planned to be held and a cafeteria was shut down by order of the Palandöken Municipality on Wednesday, only two weeks before the beginning of the games are set to open.
Palandöken Mayor Orhan Bulutlar said the building, belonging to the Erzurum Youth and Sports Directorate, had to be shut down because it’s license had not been presented to the municipality.
The municipality received no answers to its questions of who constructed the building or what activities it would accommodate, Bulutlar said. “An institution should list what it does on paper,” he said. “Who constructed the building? What will be done there? We could not get any answers.”
The XXV Winter World University Games, the first high-profile international sports event to be held in Erzurum, are set to begin on Jan. 27.
