01:17I didn't touch the child.
01:19I was not at home.
01:24I was at work.
01:26I forced them to have children because I felt sorry for them.
01:29I was the one who talked to the mother.
01:31There was no way for them to have children.
01:36Based on the investigation, the victim did not immediately report to his parents because of the fear of the accused that he would be released.
