yes you can file the police complaint regarding the mental harassment of a minor girl. if the owner of the car had any problems he could have gone to the police directly rather than making the cctv footage public

hello client as a matter of facts which you have defined above is a clear cut matter if defamation as a matter of facts small childrens of 8 year can can not be clamed as full marure and fully reponsible person as an adlut person . but a fully grown and an adults person do not have any rights to post vedio of any child without the permission of the said child if it is done so then it is a matter of defamation as well as the matter of explotation of the child mentally yes it can be challenged in court.

If the cctv footage was published with a view and query to find out the girl who scratched the car, then there is no case made out as such. However, if there were bad remarks for the girl along with the publication, then it can be a defamation and may be a case against a girl child.
