Is it illegal for schools to rummage through students' suitcases?

This is an invasion of privacy. Only the public security and other judicial organs have the right to search according to law, and other departments have no right. The school can call the police and can't search students' suitcases and wardrobes without authorization. The right to privacy refers to a kind of personality right that the private life and private information secrets enjoyed by natural persons are protected according to law and are not illegally violated, known, collected, used and made public by others. Moreover, the subject of rights has the right to decide to what extent others can interfere in their private lives, whether their privacy is open to others, and the scope and extent of disclosure.
