The U.S. State Department’s first annual report on trafficking in persons contains serious flaws, Human Rights Watch has said. "The State Department´s report is a real mixed bag," said LaShawn R. Jefferson, Acting Executive Director of the Women´s Rights Division of Human Rights Watch. "We´re glad the U.S. government is finally paying close attention to this important human rights abuse. But the report has some major flaws that will need correcting the next time around."
