Explanation:
"The plaintiff is the person bringing a lawsuit to court, by filing a plea or motion. More frequently these days, in civil law cases, a plaintiff is often called a claimant. That is, the plaintiff or claimant is the person bringing a claim against another person. The term claimant is also used in arbitration cases." - https://www.thebalancesmb.com/what-is-a-plaintiff-in-a-lawsu...

Complainant


Explanation:
The terms noticiante, noticiado and notícia-crime are all technical terms in the area of criminal law.

A notícia-crime is the complaint made to the police or Public Prosecutor about the commission of a crime.

"Notícia-crime, é o conhecimento de um fato criminoso, que se leva à autoridade. Ela pode se materializar por meio de um boletim de ocorrência ou de uma petição, entre outras formas, e pode ser dirigida ao delegado de polícia, ao Ministério Público ou ao juiz. A lei não impõe rigor formal, mas devem estar presentes na comunicação a narrativa do fato em todas as suas nuances e a indicação (com possível qualificação) de quem é provável autor do crime."

"WHAT IS A CRIMINAL COMPLAINT?
A criminal complaint is a short statement of essential facts about an alleged crime, which, when filed in Court, formally begins the criminal process. Facts about a crime are submitted to the District Attorney's Office by a law enforcement agency. If the evidence is deemed sufficient to prosecute, a complaint is filed. The District Attorney's Office can authorize a complaint for any crime."

https://www.aroostook.me.us/what-is-a-criminal-complaint.htm...

The noticiante is the complainant.
"Fulano de tal moveu uma Notícia Crime contra Beltrano. O Noticiante Fulano de tal tomou conhecimento do fato criminoso e o comunicou a autoridade policial."

https://www.dicionarioinformal.com.br/significado/noticiante...

"Complainant: (...) one who instigates prosecution or who prefers accusation against a suspected person."

Blacks Law Dictionary, 6th Edition, page 285.
