La denuncia anónima en el proceso penal
Abstract
En este trabajo se efectúa una exposición global de la denuncia anónima, en el marco del
proceso penal. Partimos de que no se encuentra regulada en la LECRIM y, por lo tanto,
tampoco proscrita. Analizamos los principales argumentos favorables y contrarios a su
utilización. A continuación, realizamos un repaso sobre las principales sentencias de la Sala 2.ª
del Tribunal Supremo que han valorado esta figura y anotamos los requisitos esenciales que se
exigen para su admisión. En último lugar, exponemos una serie de reflexiones a propósito de
las tendencias internacionales de expansión de la denuncia anónima y sus riesgos, tales como
el surgimiento de un posible «Derecho premial» y los peligros que pueden conllevar.
In this paper, we make a global presentation of the anonymous complaint within the framework of the criminal process. We assume that it is not regulated in the LECRIM and, therefore, not proscribed either. We analyze the main arguments favorable and contrary to its use. Next, we review the main sentences of the 2nd Chamber of the Supreme Court that have assessed this figure and we note the essential requirements that are required for its admission. Lastly, we present a seria of reflections regarding the international trends of expansion of anonymous reporting and its risks, such as the emergence of a possible «Rewards Law» and the dangers that may entail.
