Your lawyer can file a copy of the complainant's death certificate in court. Your lawyer who is well known about the case can tell the case's fate. Without the facts of the case can form an opinion.

The case will not be abated or closed just because complainant died, the LRs of the complainant will continue the case.
You cannot file any petition to close the complaint just for this reason.

As the complainant, who has stated to have been defamed, is no more accordingly there remained nothing for prosecution / cause of action / sue the accused do not survive. Hence the case shall automatically come to close by submission of his death certificate.
