304: Interfering with mines
or “This law used to make it illegal to mess with mines, but it's not in use anymore.”
You could also call this:

“It used to be against the law to give someone explosives to help them do something bad.”

This law was about giving explosives to someone to help them commit a crime. It was part of the Crimes Act 1961 in New Zealand. However, this law no longer exists. It was removed on 1 October 2003. This means that if you look for this law now, you won’t find it in the current version of the Crimes Act.
