The Marici
Accountability Review

A claim-by-claim record of public statements made by the nonprofit Marici (marici.org), and what could be verified from public sources.

§ Claim 09

Claim 09 — five cities, six cities, or forty-two: the deployment count does not reconcile

Same-day archived captures of marici.org describe "five massive interconnected cities" on two pages and "six major interconnected cities" on a third, alongside three different totals for cities deployed or queued. A review of the conflicting figures and what a published city list would settle.

Claim 09 Figures Do Not Reconcile

Verdict: Evidence needed: a single published list naming the cities and a consistent count across pages. Evidence located: three marici.org pages, captured the same day, giving five, six, 32, 41, and 42 as counts for what is described as the same programme.

“In 2025, Marici collapsed the second-largest ecosystem of child sex slavery on the planet — five massive interconnected cities that were the spine of the second-largest supply chain of trafficked children in the world... Marici has freed over 105,000 children, neutralized over 1,700 criminal networks, and achieved over 90% reduction in child sex trafficking across six major interconnected cities — shutting down what was the second-largest system of child sex slavery on Earth.” — marici.org (about.html, solution.html, faq.html) [source] [archived]

What the archive shows (all captured 11 June 2026)

  • about.html: “five massive interconnected cities” collapsed in 2025; “32 cities across 21 countries” for the wider deployment
  • solution.html: “five massive interconnected cities” collapsed in 2025; “PROVEN 5 CITIES · 2025 COHORT”; “QUEUED 42 CITIES · 23 COUNTRIES”
  • faq.html: “six major interconnected cities”; a five-year goal of “41 hotspots”

The adjective changes (“massive” vs. “major”), the count changes (five vs. six), and the wider footprint is given three different totals — 32, 41, and 42 — on pages captured within hours of each other on the same day.

What would substantiate this

  • A single published list naming the cities involved in any of these counts
  • A consistent, dated figure distinguishing cities completed from cities queued
  • The operations data or methodology behind the five, six, 32, 41, and 42 figures
  • A public explanation reconciling the same-day discrepancy between the three pages
