    For pulling the pants as a sexual harassment? We, probably don’t know the full picture. Because based on info from the comment only, arrest of a minor (not just a detention) seems to be too harsh of a punishment

      Maybe I’m unclear on what you don’t understand about the details that have been provided. What is your perception of the difference between being arrested and detained? Sexual harassment (and sexual assault as described above) is a crime in civilized places. Detention and arrest are part of a process to document and investigate alleged crimes. Those steps in the process are not the punishment though, that would be sorted out during sentencing if the prosecution is successful in court.
