Rights of individuals vs. Rights and interests of the community
You could talk about if an individuals right should be infringed to protect the rights of the community to feel safe. cases such as locking up sex offenders or terror suspects (Case study of Muhamed Haneef). Use the dot points from mainly the criminal investigation process.

My teacher went through this question with my class, I'll try to find whether i still have the notes for this question

hope it helps
