if contents supported to Sec 377 and sec 201b has mentioned in your complaint, while investigation you have to produce the evidence to investigating officer, then police can added those section in Chargesheet. If police will not added you have to lodge seperate complaint for such offence.

Hi
You can ask the police in writing through your lawyer to amend the FIR and include Sec 377 and sec 201b. if police is not willing to amend FIR, File a private complaint in court with all of the details and the courts will ask the police to investigate.
since you have filed a private complaint and there is also an FIR, both the private complaint and FIR will be clubbed together and the case will be heard as one single complaint. that way you can include Sec 377 and sec 201b.
