"I had known the suspect for around a year. We got acquainted over the phone ... I want out with him three times. In November we were together when he hugged me and kissed me on the lips. It happened in the parking lot," she told prosecutors.

The suspect was cited as admitting to prosecutors that he hugged and kissed the schoolgirl.

Meanwhile during police questioning, he claimed that he touched her hand only.
