For the filing of 498A Indian Penal Code Case, the complainant (your wife) does not have to give evidence in the beginning itself. A complaint with any substantiation, however small it may be, will be enough. False allegations though can later on be challeneged and can be thrown out if you have any evidence of the contrary.
