Defamation - 17 years old

I am 17 years old and a girl accused me of touching her in the school bus. I was sitting with friends of mine the whole time and we all leave only after everyone leaves the bus.
A.Dear client,
Stay calm and composed: It's essential to remain calm and composed during this situation. Panicking or reacting emotionally may not help your case.
Talk to your parents or guardians: Share the situation with your parents or guardians and seek their support and guidance. They can help you navigate the process and take appropriate steps to address the accusation.
Gather evidence: If you were sitting with friends the whole time and left the bus after everyone else, your friends can potentially be witnesses to support your innocence. Collect any evidence, such as text messages, social media posts, or any other communication that can help establish your whereabouts and actions during the bus ride.
Cooperate with authorities: If school authorities or law enforcement get involved in the investigation, cooperate fully with their inquiries. Provide any evidence or information that supports your side of the story.
Consult a lawyer if needed: If the situation escalates, or if you are unfairly treated or falsely accused, consider seeking legal advice from a lawyer. They can guide you through the legal process and protect your rights.
Stay away from the accuser: If the situation becomes tense or uncomfortable, it's best to avoid any confrontations with the person who accused you. Maintain a respectful distance and avoid any further conflicts.
