Who are they :(

I moved to old Salata since almost a week and since we moved here we are seeing some very old men sitting on sidewalks, sometimes at day and sometimes at night, everytime I see them I'm driving and it's hard to stop and talk to them and it is making me feel so guilty and dead curious, I mean are they homeless? It is hard for me to imagine that someone is homeless in this country.. Plus there is a mosque just right across the street that they most probably can go to rather than staying in tje streets if they are homeless. And now it's raining and I can still see them there and everytime I see them around the roundabout and they look at me I feel so sad but it's not possible to stop.

Have anyone seen this before or knows who they might be or just knows anything?

They are valuable assets, you need to stop & talk to them some of them be from the same profession as yours , you will definitely learn a lot from them, do not avoid them but stop & talk ................. on your week end ...... offer them tea at near by shop .............. plus biscuits ...............

I do not think that they are homeless. Nor do they beg for money. They just like to hang out and look at the cars. You probably wont see them there past bedtime, if I am not wrong.
