It is called as double jeopardy if the complaint is of same nature and same reason.
It is not maintainable in law however that will be decided in the court only and not by the police station.
However in the next police station, if you are able to convince them that she has already filed a complaint with another police station for the same reason and are able to produce some evidence for it, the police may after taking opinion from public prosecutor would close this complaint, but the police should be willing to help you.
