Is there a single word that means "To commit treason"?

Is there a word I can use in place of 'committing treason' in the sentence

"The corporal was on trial for committing treason."

so the sentence reads

"The corporal was on trial for _____ing"


Treason is a defined legal concept, so has a definite meaning. There's no verb form of treason. Use

The corporal was on trial for treason.


The verb is the same as the noun - 'treason'. But the verb form is stated by the OED to be 'rare'.
