非ひ親しん告こく罪ざい

noun

offense prosecutable without a formal complaint

Legal term for crimes that can be prosecuted even if the victim does not file a complaint, contrasting with 親告罪 (offenses requiring a complaint).

• 強ごう盗とうは非ひ親しん告こく罪ざいなので、被ひ害がい者しゃが告こく訴そしなくても起き訴そされる。

  Robbery is an offense prosecutable without a formal complaint, so the perpetrator can be indicted even if the victim does not press charges.
