The correspondent for Orda.kz Nikita Telizhenko was preparing a report on how traders live on the railway platforms and what happens to street trading, for which he went to the stations in Saryshagan and Shu. On the second day, at the Shu station, a man approached the journalist and, ascertaining that Telizhenko was a journalist, warned him to be careful: «Don’t stay here too long, people have already been talking about you for two days».
