Answer 1

Yes, every individual should have right to privacy. The reason is if a person does not have a right to privacy, than he is access to every one. Other people can know about his life, for example his phone number, his house address all things will be available to other public, which can risk his security.

It is ethical for government officials to access the information of the offender, but to make it public than it is completely wrong. If the access is to arrest the offender or to bring out the crime than it is totally fine.

If the information is shared in the criminal justice system than it is related to your personal and professional life, they will have access to all your information which can lead to have negative effect on your life.

If the offender has committed a crime than only his information should be access ,and that only by government officials and only for the security purpose. And his personal and private life should not be hampered.
