He stated that when examining the circumstances of traffic accidents, fair decisions should be made and drivers should not be stripped of their licenses for minor violations. However, if people do not obey the police, acting harshly is permitted, the press service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs writes.
«Fear no one — you represent the law! Our president often says: act in accordance with the law, and everything will be fine. And I, as the head of the MIA, will always defend you! (…)
Any risk must be justified. Readiness, if necessary, to use weapons is also important. Take care of yourselves — that is the main thing. As for the rest, I am 150% sure, we will establish order!»,
Kubrakou instructed.
