According to UNICEF Local Officer Shamshad Qureshi the reason is lack of proper law enforcement, negligence of parents and lack of awareness among the children and the society. 
Kwa mujibu wa afisa wa Shirika la UNICEF anayefanya kazi nchini humo, Shamshad Qureshi, sababu zinazotajwa ni pamoja na kukosekana kwa udhibiti wa kutosha wa sheria inayohusika, upuuzaji unaofanywa na wazazi na ukosefu wa uelewa miongoni mwa watoto na jamii kwa ujumla.
