Spanish term or phrase: Hecho primero de la querella
This is a footnote. I need to know whether querella in this case should be translated as law suit, lawsuit, or complaint (or something else) and how the items/facts/points are worded.

TIA

Hecho Primero de la querella presentada ante la Audiencia Nacional española por un conjunto de ciudadanos saharauis el 14 de septiembre de 2006 contra los responsables marroquíes de las violaciones masivas y sistemáticas sufridas por la población del Sahara Occidental desde 1975 constitutivas de delitos tales como genocidio, detención ilegal, tortura y crímenes contra la humanidad.
