That would be for the prosecuting authority in the country where you are charged to decide.
I suspect it's unlikely a prosecution would be dropped for 'territorial' reasons once proceedings have commenced.



[Edit]

Re "I doubt if Police would want to go wandering airside areas in the hope of catching a pilot out."

Perhaps not.
But if some security screener (or anyone else) decides to report his/her suspicions, either because he regards it as his 'duty' or because a pilot has upset him, the police would undoubtedly go into action.
