If it is a state prosecuted case (by Police), then the victim/defacto complainant need not attend the court on each and every date of hearing.
Attendance on the date of witness evidence deposition would be sufficient

agreeing with Mr Kalaiselvan I will add that if full facts are shared more views an be expressed.

Victim need not to attend court on day to day hearing ,she is required to attend the court whenever her presence is necessary for recording her statement or identification of accused persons.
