     “We bought gifts, sweets, toys, and creative boxes and organized a mobile group, which included juvenile police officers and district inspectors, and then we went to visit these families. We did not do anything supernatural. Kindness and mercy, in my opinion, is the basis of human relations especially when communicating with children,” said Darkhan Musanov, head of Almaty’s Zhetysu District police department, noting this was not just a one-time campaign.
