Question:
What is the evidence that the presence of a third woman removes seclusion?
Answer:
If a woman is with them, she becomes the fourth, not the third; because the prevailing view is that the suspicion is removed. However, one woman might be confided in and asked for help, so if there are three, the accusation is removed.
