Poor Jade Goody!!

Well possession of an offensive weapon is a crime against the state, so charges can be made there regardless of whether there's a complaint or not. Then there's the public order offences of causing fear or provocation of violence, which I think can be charged without having a complainant (though I'm not sure).
Anyway, does seem strange unless there's less to it than the reporting suggests, which is likely the case.

No she would not need to make a complaint given the circumstances that have been reported.

Jade never knew she was carrying a hammer according to the reports.

Also, it turns out she was a nutter.

Who was a nutter? Jade, or hammer wielding woman?

This case might be the exception.
It's not as if the poor girl has a career to plug or to maintain.

That poor poor woman.

She tries her best and just faces trouble at every turn

So what if a hammer is an 'innappropriate' gift, I think it was very thoughtful to deliver it in person.
