In Nice, aggressive begging is prohibited until September 30th.
The mayor of Nice has issued an order to this effect, as people soliciting donations on sidewalks or roads, some accompanied by dogs, can constitute a public disturbance.
The affected areas include the city center and certain points at the city entrances.
Through a letter to the Public Prosecutor, the mayor of Nice expressed his concern about this aggressive begging, with the occasional presence of minors and the sale of counterfeit products. He is asking the Prosecutor’s Office to support him in his actions.
