Chess talent accused of cheating “via anal beads” is checked extra thoroughly during body scan

Is Hans Niemann (19) really cheating at the highest chess level? And does the American use ‘anal beads’ for this, which are operated at a safe distance by an accomplice? The scenario seems too crazy for words, but organizers of chess competitions seem to take it into account. For example, the body scan that Niemann underwent yesterday before the start of the American championship lasted a little longer than with his opponents. And striking: the teenager also had to turn around, much to the delight of the commentators.
