Crimes Act 1961

Procedure - Indictments

336: Indictment for treason

You could also call this:

“This used to explain how to officially accuse someone of betraying their country, but it's not used anymore.”

This part of the law used to talk about how to formally accuse someone of treason, which is a very serious crime against the country. However, this section no longer exists in the law. It was removed on 1 July 2013. This means that if you want to know about accusing someone of treason, you’ll need to look at other parts of the law or newer laws that might cover this topic.
