Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the appellants had standing to file a nullity complaint as private accusers under Art. 270 let. g PPF
Decisione estratta
In offences prosecuted only upon complaint, where the public prosecutor does not intervene, the injured party must be allowed to seek nullity review; the appeal was therefore admissible on this point.
Motivazione estratta
Valais procedure gives the public prosecutor no role in complaint-based offences and honour offences, so without standing the Federal Tribunal could not review federal-law violations in such cases.
