What about "child trafficking suspect", "arms dealer suspect" or "drug dealer suspect" ?

The problem here is that authoritarian and Western governments might request the data about opposition activists under excuse of being "drug dealer suspect". For example, what if US requests data on Snowden or Assange?
Some government officials also qualify environment activists as "ecoterrorist" which make them enter in the "terror" category.
