One of the individual is suicide him self without leaving any proof of evidence in writing by his own hand. There is message he left in his Face Book account naming others. Can it be considered for lodging FIR with proof document in the court of law.

How much weight will be given to such posts on facebook will depend upon overall facts and circumstances of the case.

It cannot be concluded that the posts on face-book are exclusively conclusive evidence to initiate criminal action against those persons. The posts are to be verified, the time is to be matched, the presence of the deceased is to be verified, the presence of his family members is to be verified, the fact of enmity/mense rea is to be taken into consideration and so on.
