The right to an effective remedy for trafficked persons 2011, para. 19
Párrafo- Paragraph text
- In many States, it is possible in theory to seek compensation through criminal, civil or labour proceedings. However, as discussed in the Human Rights Council report, various obstacles render such a possibility simply illusory in practice. While different factors affect the efficacy of criminal, civil and labour proceedings, common obstacles for trafficked persons to seek compensation through legal proceedings include: failure to identify trafficked persons and accord them regular residence status; lack of adequate support in recovery of trafficked persons; lack of information and knowledge on the part of trafficked persons; lack of free legal aid available; lack of capacities, knowledge and experience on the part of the judiciary and lawyers in seeking compensation for trafficked persons; and inadequate witness protection programmes to guarantee the safety and security of trafficked persons and their family members.
