Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the complainant had standing to file a constitutional complaint against the dismissal of the criminal investigation.
Extrahierter Entscheid
He lacked standing on the merits because, as an allegedly injured party in defamation and unfair competition matters, he had no legally protected interest under Art. 88 OG.
Extrahierte Begründung
The right to prosecute belongs to the state; a private complainant may only raise procedural rights violations amounting to formal denial of justice. He was not a victim under the Victim Assistance Act because no direct impairment of physical, sexual, or psychological integrity was shown.
