Filespec changes to "followed" alias

I have this line(running 9.2.2):

tell application "Finder" to delete alias "Apple:Desktop
Folder:Hotlist.html"

Problem is, I can't even compile the script because the file does not (yet)
exist and Script Debugger reports as such and can't compile.
How to fix this?

Also, after the file is moved the script magically changes so the filespec
is the trashed file. When I run the script next it errors because there is
no trash file.
Al;so, how to fix this?

Hope that makes sense...
