Question juridique clé
Whether the complainant had standing under Art. 88 OJ to file a public-law appeal against the dismissal of the criminal complaint.
Solution extraite
A complainant generally lacks standing to challenge a refusal to indict or a dismissal/non-suit; only a formal denial of justice through violation of party rights may be complained of.
Motifs extraits
Criminal prosecution belongs to the public authorities; the complainant normally has only a factual interest. Here, no formal denial of justice was shown.
