Yes there was an accusation, and I don't understand your point in asking.
Edit: getting pedantic with this but oh well. I guess the language "doesn't mean the first is true" was ambiguous. I did not mean to say that #2 being a claim that hasn't been proven meant that #1 may or may not have happened in the first place, I meant to say that #2 being a claim that hasn't been proved does not mean that the accusation itself, which truly was made, was true.
