You cannot get a copy of the complaint. However a lawyer may help you in collecting the details. Don't go to station. Approach a lawyer and then he may advise. It may be an harassment complaint and in the guise of enquiry, police may arrest you.

The police would have sent you summon. In that summon also they might have mentioned the section under which they filed or received any complaint. 1. If you are very panic , you can apply for Anticipatory Bail against that complaint. The police should answer the details to the High Court. For further help pls contact me.
