Finnish term

Ilmoittaa syytteeseen pantavaksi

Finnish to English Law/Patents Law (general)
Hi all,
This is a legal text about someone who is being formally accused of a crime in court. I have a few ideas, but because I am not a specialist in the subject, I would like to hear other opinions, as I know that there is a specific term for the expression! :-)
"Käräjäoikeus toteaa, että vaikka asianomistaja ei ole ilmoittanut rikosta syytteeseen pantavaksi"
Thanks a lot for you time.

Report an offence in order to bring charges

specifically, it concerns reporting an offense so as to have someone
charged. A fair translation would be
... although complainant did not report the offense in order to have charges brought
