The ‘ right to privacy ’ is essentially an offshoot of the philosophy of ‘individualism’. The relationship between the individual, the society and the state and the areas of conflict in their mutual spheres of activity has engaged the attention of political thinkers for several past centuries in the west. There are however, little sources in the writings of ancient Indian thinkers on the subject.  The oriental peoples no doubt had speculated on the State and its problems even before the time of the Greeks.  But they did not develop any political theory or philosophy to analyse the relationship of the individual and the state in any systematic form.  The issue was mixed up with a great deal of mythology and superstition.

When seven police officers raided Dollree Mapp’s suburban Cleveland home in May 1957 seeking evidence that she or others in the two-story brick residence were making a bomb and were involved in illegal gambling, Mapp, known as Dolly, demanded to see a search warrant. A piece of paper was shoved at her, but before she was able to read the document the officers snatched it away.The officers found no evidence of a bomb or illegal gambling, but they did discover books containing sexually explicit images. Mapp was charged with possession of obscene material.At trial, the court determined there had been no search warrant and, as such, there was a violation of the Fourth Amendment ban on illegal searches and seizures. However, the judge still found Mapp guilty because the higher courts had not applied the amendment’s exclusionary rule in state court criminal cases. As a result, the evidence was admissible and the conviction stood.That changed on June 19, 1961, when the U.S. … [Read more...] about June 19, 1961: Police raid of home sparks a revolution in the criminal justice system
