Original Note:
The language used is misleading. The word "accused" implies that he has been formally accused by reporting the crime to the police. In fact, the women "claim" that he had committed a crime. There is a very big distinction. https://www.askthelawyers.com/read-article/what-is-the-difference-between-an-accusation-and-allegation
