hi,
I will tell you about the matter but first of all tell me the facts of the case.

Yes the case for defamation is made out.

Police complaint is not must.

The Police can't take cognizance of defamation cases on its own - as per S.199 the complaint has to be filed by person aggreieved before Magistrate concerned.
