Abstract: A modified version of the bilocal particle is presented in terms of complex spacetime. Unusual constraint structure of the model is studied, and a new concept of the physical equivalence is proposed in accordance with Dirac's conjecture. It is found that in the quantum theory the physical state conditions are compatible with existence of eigenstates of momentum only when the dimension of spacetime is four. An example of scattering amplitude is calculated.
