Other guy friends were also placing their arms on her shoulder but it was only my cousin who received a complaint, since they had misunderstanding recently. After the incident last year, they had night out in a bar again, 2 weeks after that picture taking incident. The former lesbian friend followed and joined them again. Was placing an arm on the shoulder per se means sexual harassment?
In the perception of the other party, especially if the action is unwanted or uncomfortable for the other party, then yes it can be construed as such if your cousin is in a superior position or rank to the other person.
