Questão jurídica principal
Whether the victim could challenge the acquittal by federal cassation complaint as to criminal liability.
Decisão extraída
The complaint was inadmissible because the cassation remedy is limited to violations of federal law and cannot be used to review constitutional complaints or reweigh evidence.
Fundamentação extraída
The court held that allegations of arbitrariness and breach of in dubio pro reo are reserved to constitutional review, not cassation. The victim's attack on the acquittal therefore could not be heard in this procedure.
