AK.2007.5Altro tribunale15 nov 2007Partially Granted
Estratto da Omnilex
The court addressed standing to seek reopening of a criminal proceeding that had ended by final dismissal order. It held that the accused and the public prosecutor may request reopening under Arts. 248 and 249 StP. By contrast, the criminal complainant is not entitled to do so under Art. 249 StP. The court further recognized that the parents of the alleged victim, as survivors, have standing to file the extraordinary remedy of reopening under the Victim Assistance Act.
Art. 248 i.V.m. Art. 249 StP; standing to request reopening of a criminal proceeding terminated by dismissal order. The accused and the public prosecutor are entitled to apply for reopening. The criminal complainant is not legitimized under Art. 249 StP. Survivors of the alleged victim may, however, invoke the Victim Assistance Act and file the extraordinary remedy where the statutory survivor status and the protected victim nexus are established (Art. 2 Abs. 2 lit. b i.V.m. Art. 8 Abs. 1 lit. c OHG).
Aus den Erwägungen:
Der Angeschuldigte und der Staatsanwalt können die Wiederaufnahme eines durch Aufhebungsverfügung rechtskräftig beendeten Strafverfahrens beantragen (Art. 248 i.V.m. Art. 249 StP). Nach Art. 249 StP ist der Strafkläger nicht legitimiert, die Wiederaufnahme zu verlangen (vgl. auch GVP 1989 Nr. 65). Hingegen sind die gesuchstellenden Eltern als Hinterbliebene des mutmasslichen Opfers gestützt auf das Opferhilfegesetz zur Einreichung des ausserordentlichen Rechtsmittels der Wiederaufnahme des rechtskräftig aufgehobenen Strafverfahrens legitimiert (Art. 2 Abs. 2 lit. b i.V.m. Art. 8 Abs. 1 lit. c OHG; Steiger-Sackmann, OHG-Kommentar, 2005, Art. 8 OHG N 111).
