Question juridique clé
Whether the complainants had standing to challenge the non-suit by public law appeal
Solution extraite
They lacked standing because they did not qualify as victims and had no protected legal interest in the prosecution decision.
Motifs extraits
Under Art. 88 OJ, a complainant generally cannot appeal a non-suit or refusal to prosecute; standing exists only for a victim under the LAVI if civil claims may be affected. The appellants expressly did not invoke victim status.
