Domestic violence is high in Saudi Arabia. Many cases go unreported for many reasons such as fear of the attacker and lack of punishment. If not much will be done to stop the attack then why report it. Abuse by guardians has become part of a societal norm as well making it difficult for the abused to come forward.

Because there are many instances of human trafficking that go unreported, it is impossible to determine the amount of victims who have been part of human trafficking. Uganda is a major source and destination for human trafficking of men, women, and children. Kenya is another country that is a major source and destination and both of these countries are ranked as Tier 2.

The actual number of human trafficking victims is unable to be determined. This is because there is not an official database on human trafficking. It is hard for some police officials to positively identify trafficking cases. In some cases many people do not even recognize they are victims of the crime.
