Technically, the purpose of codifying "due process" into law is to hamstring a corrupt government from hastily (and legally) removing its opponents.
This logic and pattern also applies to all other laws regarding the treatment of citizens, including the right to not self-incriminate. Which, by the way, is also intended to make illegal the use of poor treatment against the government's political opponents.
Indeed, all original Constitutional laws, including the Bill of Rights, are intended to limit and make illegal the actions of an overreaching government whilst simultaneously expediting and facilitating the actions of an overtaxed citizenship against that government.
