9. Plenty of reasons.
1) Taking away citizenship without prove of something like treason, is equivalent to stealing property.
2) Your right to live in your land is a right. This is similar to the above argument, but different in the sense that it goes beyond citizenship. You can have an indigenous right, granted to you not by citizenship, but by historical precedence to live somewhere. The longer you can claim historical residence in a land, the stronger that right. Note: this is not a right as defined by law, but a right as defined by justice; more valid IMHO
3) Due process; without it, any actions or implications that occur after are rather suspect.
4) It's the human way to be.

To name a few.
