I can believe that. Maybe they get in more trouble if they hang out
where the tourists are, which is usually where the beggars get more
money in this country.

Huh. I was there for a couple weeks, including all around center city,
and I didn't see anything like that. Mind, I wouldn't be surprised if
they were arrested and taken somewhere else so they'd stop bothering the
tourists. :-)
I'll ask relatives if they run into such.
