My script creates a 16 bit /channel version of itself and saves in a folder called "converted"
I want to permanently delete this folder at the end of my script without going through the trash.
Is there a way to delete it straight out without going via the Trash or move it to the trash and delete exclusively this folder?

set bar to alias ((path to desktop as text) & "converted") tell application "Finder" delete bar empty the trash end tell
