Key legal question
Whether the complainant had standing to file a criminal appeal as a victim or holder of civil claims.
Extracted holding
He did not show victim status under the Victim Assistance Act and had no civil claims against the officers; therefore he lacked standing.
Extracted reasoning
The alleged psychic harm was too vague, and no direct physical, sexual, or sufficiently specified psychic injury was substantiated. Under Neuchâtel liability law, any claim lies against the public body, not the individual agents, so no civil claim against them exists.
