Residents of Bishkek voice main security problems of the capital
Insufficient illumination of streets, turnover of police staff among district inspectors, teenage criminality — these problems were voiced by the residents of the capital as the main security problems. The civil union «For Reforms and Result» reported the results of the research.
The organization notes that during the study of public security issues, citizens expressed concern about the criminal situation in the capital.
According to Bishkek residents, only the central streets are illuminated, while the inner streets of most blocks and park areas remain dark. Attacks are mostly recorded there.
Anxiety is caused by groups of people that gather in the evenings in yards and at playgrounds, as well as people without a specific place of residence. Another problem is offenses among minors.
The criminalization of youth is also a concern of the citizens. They believe that the main reason is the propaganda of violence on the Internet, the lack of work on formation of a world view. At the same time, the potential of inspectors for juvenile affairs and social educators, according to the citizens, is not always sufficient.
