In regards to the arrest, detention or imprisonment of a child, these actions should conform with the law and only be used as a last resort, for the shortest amount of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The CRC also states that no child should be subjected to torture, other cruel treatment or punishment, and that capital punishment or life imprisonment sentences should not be imposed for children under the age of eighteen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/iran-hrm.com\/2021\/11\/19\/iran-children-are-the-most-vulnerable\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Iran HRM said<\/a>, \u201cThis is not the case in Iran where children are arrested, tortured, and sentenced to death without having access to a lawyer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the November 2019 uprising, at least 29 children were among those killed by the regime\u2019s security forces. More young protesters who were injured were taken from hospitals without being treated and arrested, later being tortured to make false confessions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In regards to education, the CRC states that primary education should be compulsory and free to all, state members should give equal opportunities to all children, encouraging regular attendance and offer financial assistance if needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Iran HRM said, \u201cEducation is neither compulsory nor free in Iran. Since more than 80 percent of the population live under the poverty line, too many families do not afford to send their children to school. Many children in Iran go to sub-standard schools without minimum equipment and sanitation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Article 32 of the CRC discusses the rights of children when it comes to economic exploitation. A child\u2019s education is first and foremost the most important aspect, and if they do have to work, they should not be exposed to anything that would harm their health, physically, mentally and spiritually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">On <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/WorldDayAgainstChildLabor?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#WorldDayAgainstChildLabor<\/a> let us remember the millions of child laborers in <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Iran?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Iran<\/a>, who have forced into hours of work for a pittance. <br>When the little boy is asked to make a wish, he bitterly says that he doesn't know what the wish is. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Tae6C30OXI\">pic.twitter.com\/Tae6C30OXI<\/a><\/p>\u2014 IRAN HRM (@IranHrm) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/IranHrm\/status\/1271441112100634625?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 12, 2020<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In Iran, the legal working age for children is 15, however the government does not supervise the enforcement of this law. Therefore, many children are forced to work for long hours, in unsafe roles for very low pay at even younger ages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Iran HRM said, \u201cOver 7 million Iranian children work to earn a living, many sift through garbage and are exposed to various hazards.
