In the summer of 2008, Human Rights Watch was also investigating the country's record.
A 1996 report by Human Rights Watch estimated the number of active mujahideen at 3,200.
But Human Rights Watch said they were 18 and 19, and the younger man was a juvenile when the assault took place.
The case was investigated in 2002, but no one was prosecuted, Human Rights Watch said.
The other two cases emerged in news media reports, Human Rights Watch said.
It typically takes three months to be brought before a judge, Human Rights Watch says.
Today, Human Rights Watch has a staff of nearly two hundred and covers some 70 countries.
But Human Rights Watch has a more basic problem.
"Human Rights Watch has no contacts in this community," she says.
A 2003 project by Human Rights Watch has reported a major problem with bonded child labour in the silk industry.
