The wiki explains Sexual Harassment as harassment or unwelcome attention of a sexual nature. It includes a range of behavior from mild transgressions and annoyances to serious abuses, which can even involve forced sexual activity. Sexual harassment refers to persistent and unwanted sexual advances, typically in the workplace, where the consequences of refusing are potentially very disadvantageous to the victim. It involves unwanted and unwelcome, words, deeds, actions, gestures, symbols, or behaviors of a sexual nature that make the target feel uncomfortable. Gender and sexual orientation harassment fall into this family. Sexual harassment is considered a form of illegal discrimination in many countries, and is a form of abuse (sexual and psychological) and bullying.
The keyword here is unwelcome attention. It was certainly unwelcome then. But it's rather confusing now. The cops will investigate, regardless. Because reports are not supposed to be retracted after being made. The full investigation will take place. If the contents of the reports are true, the harasser would be liable. Otherwise the harassed risks lodging false reports.
