Key legal question
Whether the complainant had standing to challenge the non-prosecution order by public law appeal
Extracted holding
He could invoke only formal procedural violations as a civil party, and victim status existed only for the alleged bodily injury count, not for offences against honor, theft, or damage.
Extracted reasoning
A private injured party has no standing on the merits because the penal claim belongs to the State; however, as civil party he may complain of a formal denial of justice. Victim status under the Victim Assistance Act may confer standing only where bodily integrity is directly affected and civil claims may be impacted.
