From what it sounds like, this should be reported immediately.
I assume this is an internship set up through a school. Take all the emails and show them to the department that set up the internship immediately. I suggest she get them to end this internship immediately, and inform this guy's superiors immediately.
The problem here may be that if she does not give in to him, he may give her a bad review at the end of the internship, and that can be a serious blow to her in the future. And unless he is dealt with, it will continue and he will take advantage of more girls in the future.
There is no way to be "diplomatic" with this situation, and the longer she "tolerates" this without telling anybody in a position of authority, the harder it will be to get out of it later on.
