"Patrolling the streets to ensure that these youth are not involved in improper activities," said the newspaper "The Nation" municipal body's spokesman, general Piya Utay.Uthai said that if a child wanders along the sidewalk or in front of the cafes, will be arrested and taken to a police station until their parents come to pick you up, provided they have not committed any crime. In this case, young people will be jailed and will face criminal charges for their actions.
"We must take preventive measures to prevent children from becoming offenders or victims of crime in our city," said Uthai.
