Questão jurídica principal
Whether the appellant had standing to bring a criminal complaint before the Federal Supreme Court.
Decisão extraída
He lacked standing because he was not directly affected and did not show a legally protected interest; victim status under the OHG was also not established.
Fundamentação extraída
In criminal matters, cantonal decisions are challengeable by the ordinary criminal appeal, so there was no room for subsidiary constitutional complaint. The appellant's claim that the state must punish fraudsters did not make him a victim; an omission by authorities to act on a report does not itself amount to a direct impairment within the meaning of the OHG.
