ALL human rights were violated - the right to life, liberty and property; the right to due process of law; the right not to be subjected to torture or inhuman and degrading treatment. People were moved around Europe against their will (abduction). These are the main human rights that were violated by the Nazis.

People were ill treated and murdered for what they were, not for anything they had done - for example, for simply being a Jew or 'gypsy'.
