So I have a friend of mine "Bob". Once in the office, he was walking down the back door stairs with his new coworker "Alice". These backdoor stairs usually take to the backside of the building. X and Y were walking to another building.



Now, although Bob and Alice haven't known each other long Bob believed them to be in good, healthy, and professional work relationship.



A week later, Bob was called to HR, in which he was being accused of sexually harassing his Alice down the stairs. Now unfortunately, there is no cameras in the stairs, nor there was anybody at that time!



Bob claims he is innocent (and I believe him - he is a very professional and honest person).



How can Bob approach refuting this accusation?
