I think in those sorts of situations, when the people are actually in a position of power over their government and thus able to effectively prosecute it, official charges are typically not bothered with. (or if they are, nobody bothers actually proving them during the 'trial'.)

(Lest anyone get the wrong idea, I'm not suggesting armed rebellion against the government. Rather, I'm pointing out that this situation has happened in history before, and, well, that's what we called it.)
