On December 29, an expanded meeting organized by the State National Security Committee took place in Talas. The event was attended by key representatives of regional and local administrations, law enforcement agencies, as well as school directors from the region.
According to reports, the main goal of the meeting was to prevent conflicts and offenses among schoolchildren.
During the discussion, it was also revealed that the State National Security Committee is conducting a preliminary investigation related to the behavior of 7th-grade students from schools in the city of Talas, whose video recordings caused public unrest after being spread on the internet.
As a result of the investigation, it was found that the work of government agencies in preventing offenses among youth was not sufficiently effective. Violations were identified in the areas of moral and spiritual education of adolescents. In this regard, the State National Security Committee decided on the necessity of eliminating factors contributing to offenses among minors.
As part of this resolution, the following measures were taken:
the director of secondary school No. 5 and the deputy head of the Talas city police were relieved of their positions;

- the minors involved in the incident were placed on preventive registration;
- the parents of these children were fined in accordance with current legislation.
- early identification of adolescents predisposed to offenses;
- increased accountability of educational institution leaders;
- strengthening cooperation between education authorities and law enforcement agencies;
