From 2009-2015, there was a reported increase in the transport of girls from and through Iran en route to the Gulf where organized groups sexually exploited or forced them into marriages. In Tehran, Tabriz, and Astara, the number of teenage girls in prostitution continues to increase.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOrganized criminal groups force Iranian and immigrant children to work as beggars and in street vendor rings in cities, including Tehran. Physical and sexual abuse and drug addiction are the primary means of coercion. Some children are also forced to work in domestic workshops. Traffickers subject Afghan migrants, including boys, to forced labor in construction and agricultural sectors in Iran. Afghan boys are at high risk of experiencing sexual abuse by their employers and harassment or blackmailing by the Iranian security service and other government officials.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn previous years, there were reports government officials were involved in the sex trafficking of women and girls. Reports also indicated some officials operating shelters for runaway girls forced them into prostitution rings.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Government of Iran does not fully comply with the minimum standards for the elimination of trafficking and is not making significant efforts to do so. As in previous reporting periods, the government did not share information on its anti-trafficking efforts. Publicly available information from NGOs, the media, international organizations, and other governments indicates the Iranian government is not taking sufficient steps to address its extensive trafficking challenges, particularly with regard to the protection of trafficking victims.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMoreover, female victims of sexual abuse, including sex trafficking victims, are liable to be prosecuted for adultery, which is defined as sexual relations outside of marriage and is punishable by death,\u201d the report added.<\/p>\n<p>U.S. Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL), Chairman of the House of Representatives Subcommittee on the Middle East and North Africa, made a statement after the State Department released its 2015 TIP report which placed countries into one of four tiers to indicate \u201cthe extent of government action to combat trafficking.\u201d Six countries in the Middle East and North Africa, including Algeria, Iran, Kuwait, Libya, Syria, and Yemen, were placed on the Tier 3 List, the highest level of concern, while five additional countries in the region were placed on the Tier 2 Watch List.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/ros-lehtinen.house.gov\/press-release\/middle-east-remains-major-concern-state-department%E2%80%99s-trafficking-persons-report-iran%E2%80%99s\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"alternate noopener noreferrer\">Rep. Ros-Lehtinen said<\/a>: \u201cIran\u2019s inclusion again as a Tier 3 country in the TIP report is further evidence of the administration\u2019s irresponsibility in pretending Iran\u2019s nuclear program exists in a vacuum. The administration decided to negotiate with Iran exclusively on its nuclear program while ignoring Iran\u2019s other illicit activity and human rights record and is incorrectly arguing that it is only lifting nuclear related sanctions. Despite the administration\u2019s claims, the sanctions being lifted on Iran were never intended solely for its nuclear program but were also designed to address its human rights record, including human trafficking, among other issues. As Iran\u2019s Tier 3 placement shows, human trafficking and human rights are not improving in Iran. We must not lift Iran\u2019s human rights sanctions as part of this weak nuclear deal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related news:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a
