With the arrival of the month of Ramadan, Melikgazi Municipality Police Department continues to inspect the beggars who camp in certain areas and places, around the corner.

Mayor of Melikgazi Dr. Mustafa Palancıoğlu said, “We are conducting inspections of people who collect money using their religious and conscience feelings. Our teams gather the beggars in front of places of worship as well as main and side streets and take the necessary actions. Let's not allow the exploitation of emotions and the abuse of people's goodwill, pity, and especially the sense of helping. Our people are helpful and fulfil all requests made in good faith. Begging in the courtyard of the mosque, on the roads and around the corners is not very convincing, especially during Ramadan, when solidarity reaches its peak. For this reason, real needy people should be helped. All necessary actions are taken immediately regarding the notices sent to us. Our teams will continue to do this for the comfort and peace of our people. “He said.
