Abstract
El trabajo analiza qué efectos tiene en el proceso penal en los delitos de violencia de género el que la víctima guarde silencio y no declare contra el maltratador o, incluso, que haya presentado denuncia pero en el juicio se retracte de su primera declaración acusatoria y la cambie por una favorable al acusado. Todo ello con un amplio estudio jurisprudencial sobre el efecto procesal de esta actitud de la víctima en el proceso penal y su influencia en la persecución de la violencia de género.
This paper analyses the effects, within criminal proceedings for gender-based violence offences, of the victim’s decision to remain silent and not testify against the abuser, or even of situations in which the victim has filed a complaint but subsequently retracts her initial incriminating statement at trial and replaces it with a statement favourable to the accused. The analysis is supported by an extensive study of case law on the procedural impact of such conduct by the victim in criminal proceedings and its influence on the prosecution of gender-based violence
