¶2. (SBU) Summary: Anti-TIP efforts in the Republic of Azerbaijan
are conducted under the direction of the Deputy Minister of Internal
Affairs (MIA), Vilayet Eyvazov, who serves as the National
Coordinator for the Fight Against Trafficking in Persons and the
Anti-TIP Unit which was created in August 2006 and operates under
the national coordinator's direction within the MIA. In comparison
to previous years, the GOAJ has taken important steps to increase
efforts to combat TIP, including drafting and approving updated
legislation for both a national referral mechanism (NRM) and new
national action plan (NAP) approved by the GOAJ in February, 2009.
They have also improved channels of communication with both NGOs and
IOs working in this field by reaching out to both for input on this
new legislation. Much work remains, however, in the areas of
prevention and protection. Despite claims from the GOAJ and from
several NGOs of an increase in outreach programs, efforts to
increase awareness are minimal. Also, the government continues to
dominate the area of victim protection through their direct funding
of both the victim hotline and shelter. While the new NAP includes a
NRM, it has not yet been implemented and there remains no formal
referral process for TIP victims. Coordination among the government
agencies assigned to combat trafficking is infrequent and most
agencies do not have a dedicated office for combating TIP, making
actual coordination very difficult. End Summary.
¶3. (SBU) THE COUNTRY'S TIP SITUATION
¶A. Trafficking in persons information is available, upon request,
from the MIA anti-trafficking department. According to officials
from this department, they will establish a trafficking website that
will include real time information on trafficking statistics and
anti-TIP efforts being conducted. Other sources of trafficking
information include yearly reports from international organizations
IOM, ILO and OSCE. The newly formed network of local NGOs (NAHTA -
Network Against Human Trafficking in Azerbaijan) will also produce a
yearly report on government anti-TIP efforts and provide data on the
overall TIP situation in Azerbaijan. Local NGO, Azerbaijan
Migration Center, produced an alternative TIP report as part of its
GTIP grant for 2008-2009.
¶B. Azerbaijan is a country of origin and transit. According to the
GOAJ, 78 victims of trafficking were identified in 2008 (76 women, a
two year old boy and a newborn child). Most victims were from
Azerbaijan however according to the MIA there was also one Ukrainian
and two Russian citizens. According to the director of the
government hotline shelter there were three victims from another
country- one victim each from Moldova, Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan.
They were in transit through Azerbaijan.(Note: This suggests that
the actual number and nature of victims may not be accurate as the
MIA and government shelter are closely connected). According to the
GOAJ and to several local NGOs, the Azerbaijani exclave of
Nakhchivan remains a transit point for women trafficked to Turkey.
It should be noted that there was no reliable information regarding
trafficking to, from, or through the Azerbaijani territory currently
occupied by Armenian forces, including Nagorno-Karabakh. The GOAJ
does not exercise control over this territory.
According to the GOAJ, Azerbaijani victims were trafficked primarily
by air to the United Arab Emirates, Turkey, Iran, Pakistan, and
Russia. Several NGOs and ILO believe that trafficking for both
forced labor and sexual exploitation occurs within Azerbaijan but
exact numbers do not exist. Local NGos believe that lack of
specific training for Anti-TIP investigators and a general lack of
awareness among the public that forced labor is a punishable crime
are the reasons that no cases of forced labor were reported.
Of the 78 victims identified by GOAJ, five individuals were under
the age of 18, 34 were between 18-25 years old, 30 were between
25-35 years old and 9 were over 35. All were trafficked for sexual
exploitation.
¶C. Trafficking for sexual exploitation both within and outside
Azerbaijan occurs in motels, apartments and local sauna and massage
parlors where prostitution also occurs. Trafficking for forced
labor primarily occurs in the agricultural regions outside of Baku
and within Baku city in the form of street begging.
¶D. It is difficult to identify vulnerable populations due to the
overall lack of information on TIP crimes; however, it is believed
that most victims are women who are lured abroad for better economic
conditions, including those who knowingly agree to work in the sex
industry. Local NGOs reported that traffickers are increasingly
using the prospect of marriage to lure victims. This is often
through religious marriages, which mostly occurs in Azerbaijan's
southern regions. In spite of GOAJ and NGO attention to the matter,
religious and early marriages remain a taboo topic and no concrete
information is available.
Women continue to be the group at the highest risk for trafficking
based on the statistics provided by the GOAJ with a growing concern
that men are being targeted for exploitation of labor both within
Azerbaijan and also to neighboring countries. There is no reliable
source of information to indicate that refugees, orphans and other
groups of economically disadvantaged people are at risk but members
of civil society are concerned that these groups are being targeted
with little effort by the GOAJ to prevent this.
¶E. Since the last reporting date there have been 76 TIP criminal
cases initiated with 66 cases referred to the court system. The
remaining cases are still in the investigative stage. During the
year the GOAJ identified 43 unorganized crime groups conducting
human trafficking operations in Azerbaijan. The GOAJ did not report
any activity in trafficking by organized or transnational crime
groups. The GOAJ believes that there are no foreign traffickers
operating in Azerbaijan but it is impossible to confirm that
statement. The GOAJ believes that most traffickers are individuals
who are familiar with their victim or victims and use deception or
false promises to lure them overseas for sexual exploitation.
Several unconfirmed reports from local NGOs include detailed
information of widespread involvement of law enforcement officials
in trafficking in persons within Azerbaijan. This is usually in the
form of government officials controlling activities at brothels,
motels and massage parlors/saunas where both prostitution and forced
sexual exploitation occurs. One local NGO provided details on three
cases involving both women and children allegedly being taken by
police officers to unknown locations for sexual exploitation and
held for several months before being released. According to this
NGO, most victims are afraid to pursue prosecution because of this
alleged police involvement in this activity.
¶4. SETTING THE SCENE FOR THE GOVERNMENT'S ANTI-TIP EFFORTS
¶A. The GOAJ recognizes that trafficking in persons is a problem.
¶B. In 2006 a national coordinator for the fight against trafficking
in persons was created along with a separate Anti-TIP unit also
formed to combat human trafficking in Azerbaijan. Both the national
coordinator and Anti-TIP unit are under the authority of the MIA.
There is also a national government TIP working group that includes
the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Ministry of National Security,
Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ministry of Youth and Sports, Ministry
of Culture and Tourism, Ministry of Education, Ministry of Justice,
Ministry of Labor and Social Protection, Ministry of Health, the
Prosecutor General's Office, the State Committee for Family, Women
and Children's Issues, the State Border Services, and the State
Customs Committee. The National Coordinator, who is also a deputy
minister in the MIA, chairs this working group and also has the lead
for all TIP activities in Azerbaijan.
¶C. Funding for anti-trafficking efforts remains low and
inconsistent. There appears to be no specific budget for
anti-trafficking efforts in any of the ministries assigned to combat
TIP and despite the passing of a new NAP, this issue remains a
concern. For example, the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection
has not built any assistance centers throughout Azerbaijan for the
rehabilitation of TIP victims, despite being tasked in both the new
NAP and the previous one from 2004. According to a TIP advisor from
this ministry, there has never been money allocated to this issue
despite sufficient overall funding to the ministry.
Coordination among the ministries and agencies working on TIP also
remains low and unorganized. The national government's TIP working
group rarely meets and there appears to be no primary contact or
separate office on this issue in any ministry besides MIA, Ministry
of Labor and Social Protection and Ministry of Justice.
Corruption continues to be a problem throughout Azerbaijan including
within the government. While there is no concrete evidence that
shows GOAJ officials involved in human trafficking, the low salaries
of these officials increases the likelihood of bribery or other
forms of corruption. Regarding victims assistance, the GOAJ
previously provided a one-time payment to trafficking victims of
forty dollars which is a small amount based on the cost of living in
Azerbaijan. This amount is set to be increased as part of the new
NAP.
¶D. The GOAJ periodically provides statistics and updates on anti-TIP
efforts to the USG and other international partners, however,
detailed reports including information on individual cases are not
available. The Anti-TIP Unit conducts weekly meetings with section
heads and the analytical section prepares weekly, monthly and
quarterly reports to assist with data review. The GOAJ claims to
conduct annual performance evaluations of its investigators however
the lack of clarity with their responses suggests otherwise. All
assessment information is disseminated by the national coordinator
who provides press releases and interviews highlighting anti-TIP
efforts.
¶5. (SBU)INVESTIGATION AND PROSECUTION OF TRAFFICKERS
¶A. In February 2009, the GOAJ passed a new NAP for the period of
2009-2013. This new NAP updates the previous legislation on the
Fight Against Trafficking in Persons and includes article 144.1
(trafficking for sexual exploitation) and article 144.2 (trafficking
for forced labor)of the criminal code. The new NAP was written in
close consultation with the international community and local NGOs
and as such, meets international standards and covers a plethora of
TIP circumstances. Azerbaijan also adopted the Council of Europe
Convention on Action against Trafficking in Human Beings and the new
legislation is in accordance with this agreement. The law itself
bans trafficking for the purposes of human exploitation, which
includes a broad range of activities including sexual exploitation,
forced labor, slavery, recruitment for unlawful activity, etc. The
law makes no distinction that the activity must involve crossing
international borders. The law also sets out an ambitious program
that relevant authorities within the GOAJ must undertake in order to
investigate, prosecute, and prevent trafficking, as well as
provisions for victim protection and rehabilitation.
Prior to the law's passage and adoption of criminal code amendments,
traffickers were convicted under the country's laws that covered
trafficking-related crimes. Outside of the law specifically
criminalizing TIP, traffickers may be prosecuted under articles
prohibiting slavery, rape, forced prostitution, sexual coercion,
operation of brothels, the trade and transit of minors, and
involvement of minors under the age of 16 in sexual coercion,
prostitution or other obscene acts, and travel document forgery.
Taken together, these laws encompass the full scope of possible
trafficking activities.
In February 2008, as a result of the national TIP working group's
recommendation, the Cabinet of Ministers approved the order on
"Rules for Immediate and Unconditional Referral to Anti-TIP Unit."
This order requires that all relevant law enforcement agencies must
refer trafficking cases to the Anti-TIP unit and that this unit has
sole jurisdiction over the investigation of these cases including
traffickers and victims.
The above represents a full inventory of trafficking laws in
Azerbaijan, with the relevant penalties described below. The 2005
TIP legislation included, for the first time, the possibility of
confiscation of property. While roughly equivalent to a civil
forfeiture law, this provision is included in the criminal code.
¶B. The criminal code amendments passed by Parliament in October 2005
established the following penalties for human trafficking without
distinction as to the type of human trafficking:
Trafficking of one human being is punishable by five to ten years'
imprisonment and confiscation of property.
-- Trafficking of more than one person, committed repeatedly, or
with various special circumstances is punishable by eight to 12
years' imprisonment with confiscation of property.
-- Trafficking that results in the death of a victim or other grave
results due to negligence is punishable by ten to 15 years
imprisonment with confiscation of property.
The criminal code also outlines penalties for dissemination of
confidential information about a TIP victim, which is a fine of 100
to 500 times the nominal fiscal unit, equal to 1 new manat or
approximately USD 1.19, (the average monthly salary is approximately
USD 300); up to 240 hours of community service; or up to one year of
correctional labor. Should the same act be committed by a person
using his or her official status, the fine is increased to 500 to
1,000 times the average monthly salary; one year of correctional
labor; or up to six months' imprisonment. If the same actions
include grave results, the punishment is one to five years'
imprisonment.
¶C. Trafficking for labor exploitation, like other forms of
trafficking, is punishable as human trafficking under the criminal
code, with penalties as described above. While labor recruiters in
labor source countries are convicted under the article on human
trafficking, employers and labor agents who confiscate workers'
passports and keep workers in a state of service are convicted under
the separate article on forced labor. This is punishable by up to
two years of correctional work or imprisonment, unless it is
organized and carried out by a group, in which case the law would
consider it an aggravating circumstance and increase the punishment
to three to five years of imprisonment. As mentioned above, there
were no cases of trafficking for labor exploitation reported by the
GOAJ.
¶D. Under the criminal code provisions, traffickers prosecuted for
sexual violence (which can include rape, compulsion to prostitution,
compulsory sterilization or commitment against persons of other
actions connected to sexual violence) may receive a jail sentence of
ten to 15 years or life imprisonment. Rape itself is punishable by
four to 15 years. Violent actions of a sexual nature carry a
sentence of three to eight years, or up to 15 if the victim is a
minor, dies, or contracts HIV. Coercion into sexual actions is
punishable by a fine, corrective works, or imprisonment up to three
years. The more punitive charges are in line with the penalties for
sex trafficking.
¶E. During 2008, the GOAJ reported that it identified 76 instances of
human trafficking and 66 trafficking in persons criminal cases were
opened. Five cases were still under investigation at year's end.
Out of the remaining 61 cases, all were sent to the courts for
prosecution. Of these 61 cases, 33 individuals were sentenced to
imprisonment from 2 to 6 years; 10 individuals were sentenced to
imprisonment from 6 to 8 years and 14 individuals received
probational sentences of 1 to 3 years due to severe illness or
disability. The remaining 4 cases were not determined to be human
trafficking: 2 individuals were absolved of violations under
Criminal Code article 144-1 (human trafficking) but were convicted
under article 243 of the Criminal Code (pimping) and received
probation of 1 year and 6 months and 2 individuals were convicted
under article 243 (pimping) and imposed fines of $900USD.
¶F. According to the anti-trafficking unit, their staff members have
attended seminars and conferences in Austria, Finland, Poland,
France, Ukraine, Estonia and Turkey. Additionally, they have
participated in trainings and seminars organized by the European
Union,ILO, OSCE, IOM and the US Embassy.
The US Embassy has organized a TIP victim treatment workshop for
GOAJ officials including investigators, prosecutors and judges. INL
has also funded a one year TIP advisor position through IOM to
develop capacity within the government affiliated hotline and
shelter. This advisor also works closely with GOAJ anti-TIP staff
on professional development programs and organized two exchanges to
Turkey and Ukraine to observe TIP hotline and shelter operations.
The TIP advisor has also played an integral role in the formation of
the NAHTA, new NGO network of independent NGOs from both Baku and
the regions committed to fighting TIP.
¶G. The GOAJ has signed bilateral extradition agreements with Turkey,
Pakistan and UAE. The GOAJ has not received any requests from other
countries to assist with international investigations or extraditing
citizens accused of trafficking in other countries in 2008.
¶H. As mentioned above, the GOAJ is not currently working with any
other countries to extradite citizens from Azerbaijan. In
principle, the GOAJ allows for the extradition of Azerbaijani
nationals to other countries where a crime was committed; however
the GOAJ has said it has no prior experience with this situation.
According to its procedures the GOAJ considers the place of
origination for trafficking as the jurisdiction under which
traffickers should be prosecuted. This means if an Azerbaijani
citizen committed a crime in a different country and returned to
Azerbaijan, the GOAJ would extradite that person if there was an
extradition agreement in place.
¶I. The GOAJ reported that there were no government officials
involved in trafficking nor were there any investigations opened
into possible involvement of trafficking by a government official.
However, according to several local NGOs, police are alleged to
control many, if not most, of the saunas, motels and massage parlors
in Baku and the regions where prostitution and possibly trafficking
occurs. We have no evidence of official investment or direct
involvement in these businesses. One NGO provided details from
alleged victims of trafficking who were taken by law enforcement
officials to an undisclosed location for sexual exploitation over
the course of several months before being released. Their families
were allegedly threatened by police not to press charges. Another
instance involved a woman taken to a massage parlor in Baku by a
police officer where she was sexually exploited. The woman claimed
that this establishment was either owned or controlled by the local
police.
The GOAJ reported that investigations on law enforcement officials
are conducted internally by the MIA itself and by the Ministry of
National Security. No details were provided as to how these
investigations are conducted and by whom. It is highly unlikely
that no government official is involved in TIP considering the
current environment of corruption and instances of police corruption
in other areas.
The GOAJ reported that the 2007 case involving several airport
officials accused of trafficking was closed. The result of the
investigation and court case revealed that one official was
convicted of treason. The GOAJ explained that the media had
incorrectly reported this case in the news and they claim the case
involved only one official who was involved with treason.
Regarding the case of the deputy police chief alleged to be involved
with trafficking; a respected NGO conducted an independent
investigation and concluded that there was no trafficking.
According to the GOAJ, this case was investigated and no police
involvement in any criminal activity was discovered. The case is
still in court proceedings.
¶J. As mentioned above, there have been no criminal cases of
government officials involved in trafficking for 2008.
¶K. Prostitution is illegal in Azerbaijan. The activities of a
prostitute, brothel owner/operator, pimp, and enforcer are all
criminalized and the laws are enforced. The actions of clients are
not criminalized.
¶L. This paragraph does not apply to Azerbaijan.
¶M. There is no evidence of child sex tourism in Azerbaijan.
¶6. (SBU)PROTECTION AND ASSISTANCE TO VICTIMS
¶A. The Law on Trafficking passed in 2005 provides for relief from
deportation for victims for up to one year. If a victim cooperates
in the investigation, the victim is entitled to stay until the court
case is completed. A victim can also apply to the relevant
government authorities for immigrant status.
¶B. In October 2006, the GOAJ opened a permanent shelter for TIP
Victims which is now fully renovated and operational. The shelter
has the capacity to handle 45 people at one time and provides access
to legal, medical, and psychological services for TIP victims.
Families of underage TIP victims can also be housed in the shelter.
Victims are allowed to stay in the shelter for an initial 30 days
and may reapply to the shelter director for additional one month
periods. The shelter is run by a local NGO closely associated with
the GOAJ and which primarily receives funding from the GOAJ. There
are limited medical facilities on site but the shelter has an
agreement with a nearby hospital to treat victims in need of medical
attention. The GOAJ also arranges legal, medical and psychological
assistance to victims if the victim requests it. Local NGOs report
that many victims prefer to seek shelter through friends or other
NGOs that are viewed as more independent from the GOAJ. There are
no exact numbers or data to show the extent of this housing method.
In February, 2008, the GOAJ also opened a national TIP hotline that
is funded by the GOAJ and run by a local NGO. The hotline is
located in a building that is still under renovation; frequent power
failures, inadequate heat for operators and construction noise are
problems that plague this hotline. The GOAJ, in cooperation with
the IOM TIP advisor, created a posteradvertising the hotline number
and distributed to NGOs and government agencies working on TIP.
C.The GOAJ has created a trafficking victims fund through the
Ministry of Social Protection and Labor and money is also received
from the Refugee and Internally Displaced Persons State Committee to
assist with food and clothing. According to the GOAJ, trafficking
victims receive a one time payment equivalent to $40 for relocation
assistance. As stated above, the GOAJ provides funding to the NGOs
that operate the shelter and hotline.
The GOAJ provides trafficking victims with access to legal, medical,
and psychological services although there currently does not appear
to be an effective referral mechanism process in place.
The GOAJ recently created a grant program for NGOs working on TIP
however it is not widely advertised and only one NGO has applied and
was refused the grant. It is implemented by the MIA however funding
for this grant program is not fixed from year to year.
¶D. The GOAJ assists foreign trafficking victims by allowing them to
remain in Azerbaijan for one year before deportation.
¶E. According to the NAP, the GOAJ is responsible for rehabilitating
TIP victims. Actual efforts in this area remain low. Despite a
requirement in the previous NAP to open rehabilitation assistance
centers throughout Azerbaijan, none have been opened and funding for
these centers is doubtful. One assistance center was opened in Baku
last year but is not operational due to lack of funding and
training. There are no long term housing or living assistance
benefits for TIP victims.
¶F. The new NAP includes guidelines on the creation of a new national
referral mechanism. However, this NRM remains in draft form and is
scheduled to be approved by the cabinet of ministers no later than
the beginning of April according to the NAP legislation. Most
victims are identified by GOAJ law enforcement officials who then
refer them to the government shelter. There does not appear to be a
formal referral process involving victims being referred by the GOAJ
to NGOs.
¶G. The GOAJ identified 78 trafficking victims for 2008. Of these,
52 were referred by law enforcement officials to the government
shelter. The average length of stay was two weeks. No victims were
referred by social services officials. NGOs identified and referred
three victims to the government shelter. According to one NGO it is
estimated that 40 TIP victims were identified and under the care of
local NGOs.
¶H. There is no formal system of proactively identifying victims of
trafficking among high-risk persons by government officials.
¶I. The Embassy has received no reports of trafficking victims being
jailed. The GOAJ reported that former victims of trafficking have
been convicted for involving others in prostitution, but we have no
evidence that victims of trafficking have been prosecuted for
violations of the law because of their actions while being
trafficked.
¶J. The GOAJ encourages victims to assist in the investigation and
prosecution of traffickers. Exact figures on the number of victims
who assisted the GOAJ are not known. The TIP law permits a victim
to gain employment elsewhere if he or she is a witness in a case
against a trafficker; it also permits a victim to remain in the
country if he or she wishes. Trafficking victims rarely file civil
suits or seek legal action against the traffickers, but there are no
legal restrictions on their ability to do so. There are no
restrictions on a witness' actions during a court case. According
to a report from a local NGO, 27 of the 40 victims of human
trafficking which are under protection of NGOs filed a civil claim
for restitution. The minimum amount seized from the traffickers was
$2500 and the maximum amount was $13000.
¶K. In 2008, the GOAJ reported that the MIA conducted TIP-related
training for employees of the Police Academy, the Ministry of
Justice's Legal Education Center, and the Prosecutor General's
Office's Education Center. Under the GOAJ's TIP legislation,
embassies and consulates are instructed to provide quickly the
necessary documentation for victims abroad to return to Azerbaijan.
There were no instances of embassies or consulates providing
assistance to trafficking victims during the reporting period.
¶L. The GOAJ provides medical assistance and shelter to repatriated
victims at the TIP victims' assistance shelter. Victims of
trafficking are entitled to financial compensation under the TIP
law.
¶M. IOM conducts substantive research on the trafficking problem in
Azerbaijan and also works directly with victims although the lack of
a dedicated staff member to TIP has hindered IOM's ability to
address this issue. The USG, IOM, ILO and OSCE provide guidance and
conduct anti-TIP programs. ILO organized a workshop regarding
drafting and implementing a national action plan that was attended
by local NGOs, IOs and GOAJ officials from the relevant agencies
including the national coordinator for the fight against TIP. ILO
has also created a steering committee for their Anti-TIP program
consisting of members from these same organizations. There are a
number of domestic
NGOs that also deal with the problem of trafficking, including Clean
World, the Women's Crisis Center, the Center for Legal Assistance to
Migrants, Symmetry, the Forum of Azerbaijan NGOs on Migration
(FANGOM, a network of 35 NGOs), and the Azerbaijan Children's Union.
There are also several regional NGOs that concentrate on
trafficking programming. These NGOs serve primarily as contact
points for at-risk populations and engage in some information
campaigns about the dangers of trafficking. Two of these
organizations also informally shelter local and foreign trafficking
victims. The Center for Legal Assistance to Migrants provides free
legal services to trafficking victims and works with other NGOs to
coordinate services. The Women's Crisis Center operates a crisis
hotline and provides free legal, psychological, and medical
services.
7.(SBU)PREVENTION
¶A. In 2008 the GOAJ, together with over 30 NGOs dealing with
trafficking, conducted seminars in high schools and higher education
institutions in 70 cities and regions throughout the country to
examine the causes and conditions of trafficking crimes and to raise
awareness among the youth, the local executive authorities,
municipalities and local police officers of these regions.
The GOAJ also conducted an advertising campaign, working with both
newspapers and television stations to raise awareness of the issue
among the general public. A series of informative articles on TIP
were printed in Azerbaijan, People and Echo newspapers and several
television channels (AzTV, Lider TV, ITV, Khazar TV, ATV, ANS TV)
have shown short documentaries on TIP and anti-TIP officials and
local NGOs have conducted several interviews on talk shows.
The television channels AzTV and ITV have aired public service
announcements on the topic of prevention of human trafficking and
the Committee on Family, Women and Children Affairs funded and
produced a documentary called Protect me that aired on several
television stations.
¶B. The GOAJ does not actively monitor immigration and emigration
patterns for evidence of trafficking. The State Migration Service
is responsible for tracking and issuing work permits issued to
foreigners. However, there is no separate department within this
agency trained in identifying trafficking victims.
¶C. The GOAJ coordinates communication between various government
bodies and international institutions. The multi-agency task force
is headed by the National TIP Coordinator, who is also the Deputy
Minister of Internal Affairs. The task force is composed of
department heads from the Ministries of Justice, National Security,
Labor and Social Welfare, Youth and Sport, Culture and Tourism,
Economic Development, and Health, as well as the Prosecutor
General's Office, the President's Office, the State Border Service,
and the State Customs Committee. The National Coordinator serves as
the single point of contact for anti-TIP efforts.
¶D. In February 2009, the GOAJ adopted an updated National Action
Plan (NAP) that will cover the period from 2009 to 2013. This plan
was developed in close coordination with international organizations
and NGOs. Several roundtables were held by the GOAJ that involved
representatives from IOs, embassies, NGOs and the media and the GOAJ
incorporated many of the suggestions provided by these organizations
into the final legislation. Most NGOs and IOs agreed that the
relationship with the GOAJ was much more cooperative in comparison
to previous years. The NAP is already in effect and will be
implemented by the Cabinet of Ministers and coordinated by the
national coordinator at the MIA.
The GOAJ takes the lead on Anti-TIP efforts. However, relations with
NGOs, IOs and other civil society organizations are mixed. The GOAJ
has shown a willingness to cooperate on training programs with IO's
and the USG as well as providing access to statistical data.
However, access to Anti-TIP staff and detailed information on
individual cases is difficult. Meetings with Anti-TIP unit staff
require written approval from the national coordinator and despite
promises to provide information on individual trafficking
investigations none have been provided as of the date of this
report. The GOAJ claims to work with over 30 NGOs and to have
organized a meeting in April 2007 with 21 NGOs working on TIP in
Azerbaijan. However, local NGOs and IOs have stated that they often
are not included in GOAJ decisions nor are their suggestions
elicited by the GOAJ. There is the belief among domestic NGOs and
IOs that the government cooperates more with friendly NGOs and keeps
at a distance those they consider to be opposition organizations.
There was a credible report of the GOAJ refusing to attend TIP
training because one of the presenters was considered to be a member
of such an opposition organization.
¶E. The GOAJ has attempted to reduce the demand for commercial sex
acts through a combination of law enforcement and improved social
programs for unemployed and low-income groups. The GOAJ has
targeted brothels, hotels and saunas for sting operations to
identify and arrest those involved in prostitution or other illegal
sexual activities. The GOAJ also passed several laws on social
assistance and poverty reduction with the aim of reducing the
likelihood of involvement in this field by vulnerable groups.
¶F. The GOAJ has taken no specific steps to reduce participation in
international child sex tourism by nationals of Azerbaijan.
