Iran claims that "in recent years, it has taken great strides at all national, regional and global levels in the fight against human trafficking”, including bilateral measures. Though once again, verifiable information and statistics are not available to evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of these measures. Iran does not publish statistics that could demonstrate how many cases of human trafficking have been filed, processed or sentenced, and whether or not the judicial process of those cases complied with fair trial standards or not. Therefore, the State has not released any official figures to indicate that there have been any prosecutions for the sale or trafficking of children. Recommendation Status: This recommendation has been PARTIALLY implemented. 4
