Hi, yes if the 8 year old kid has cased bodily injury or harm to another kid and if it is serious in nature, then a complaint may be lodged at the police station provided if the offender kids parents does not take any precaution to restrict their child for causing harm to others. Such children will be prosecuted under the Juvenile Justice Act and shall be dealt in accordance with the due process of law.
