Hypothetically speaking, there is a nation, very comparable to the Nazis. They believe in a 'pure race', which only consists of heterosexual caucasians. Their laws prohibit the existence of anything else (i.e. they get executed immediately). Their laws prohibit a person believing in something other than science. Their laws prohibit any person helping these people and/or fighting against these laws.
OK so, I guess you know no religion is allowed and involved with these laws, so it may not be relgion related.
Now Dina is part of a group who hides the 'unpure' and fights against the laws. She was caught and arrested, but was found not guilty.
What would that law be called, that she was found not guilty of?

She was well not exactly caught, but someone er, ratted her out. She was found not guilty due to lack of evidence and how she seemed to support the role of a 'pure' woman in society. Thus the judge bought her story and she was freed.

In such a culture, the people and their thoughts are considered to be the property of the state. Even a criminal or traitor has economic value so long as they are genetically pure.
I would imagine that the crime would be along the lines of misappropriation/misuse of state property. ie: Using the brain and body provided by the state for unauthorized purposes.
But, I would probably view it as a maintenance issue where the unit, which is erroneously protecting the impure, needs to be adjusted or fixed so it doesn't do it any more. It is like the relationship between potholes in the road an automobile's wheel alignment. The affected unit should be repaired and placed into service in a place where the likelihood of encountering impures is low.
Extermination crews should be brought in to deal with any infestation of impures which may be present in order to reduce the possibility of further contamination of, or damage to, state property.

i'd say she got off on a technicality because legally she is guilty given your statements:
1) Their laws prohibit any person helping these people and/or fighting against these laws.
2) Dina is part of a group who hides the 'unpure' and fights against the laws

High treason?
High treason, broadly defined, is an action which is grossly disloyal to one's country or sovereign. Participating in a war against one's country, attempting to overthrow its government, and attempting to kill its head of state are perhaps the best known examples of high treason. This would be a new category for the statute books.

I'd call Dina a "freedom fighter".
The charges against her might be referred to as "patriotism". -RKO- 05/15/07
