TV PROGRAM ABOUT EUROPEAN POLICING: EXAMPLES WANTED!

I am working on a television program about European policing - Schengen/Trevi etc. I am trying to find examples of policing mistakes that are the result of misused technology. For example, someone being arrested because their name is incorrectly on the police computer.

I am also looking for cases where European police forces have exchanged data with each other about their citizens: the kind of thing that will happen even more with the Schengen Information System and the European Information System.

If you know of any case like this, I would be very grateful to hear about them. I would also like to know of organisations in European countries that campaign about these matters - civil liberties, data protection etc.
