When japanese americans were placed in internment camps during world war ii, some argued that this violated what amendment in the bill of rights?

The Fifth Amendment

The Japanese Americans were placed in those camps under the Executive Order 9066 signed in February 1942, after the Japanese surprise attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941. Under the order, more than 110,000 Japanese Americans were detained and forcibly placed in internment camps during the war to guarantee the U.S. national security.

This was a very controversial case, as many argued that this violated the Fifth Amendment, which in criminal or civil cases, guarantees people's right of having a due process of law, and a grand jury before being held to answer for a crime. It states the following:

No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a grand jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the militia, when in actual service in time of war or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.
