      A court cannot start a case against the accused person without a police report of the offence or a complaint by the aggrieved person or her father, mother, brother, sister or her father’s or mother’s brother or sister. With the permission of the court a criminal case can also he filed by any other person related to her by blood; marriage or adoption.
