The basic principle is the acquittal of people's liabilities, and the accused is innocent until proven guilty by evidence. As long as the girl does not provide evidence for her claim, no judgment can be made against the man. Rather, the man has the right to demand that the girl be subjected to discretionary punishment for accusing him without evidence.
