Different governments have different forms of review for this type of action. Originally in the United States, they were tried for "Treason" but laws were passed that made it "Felonies" after that; currently (since 1991) in the United States courts have ruled that you cannot try a member of government for any action (including a crime) - Mireles v. Waco 502 U.S. 9 (1991) as the government is immune from its own law.
