As an option:

function removeArtboards ( arr ) {

    var i = arr.length; while ( i-- ) activeDocument.artboards[ arr[i] ].remove();

}

removeArtboards( [0,2,3] );

You can use Javascript under MacOS too. It is not necessary to rewrite all Javascripts in Applescript. And the most people here „speaking“ Javascript.

just wrap Alexander's script in a do javascript to incorporate it into your applescript workflow.

tell application "Adobe Illustrator"

    do javascript "    function removeArtboards ( arr ) { 

        var i = arr.length; while ( i-- ) activeDocument.artboards[ arr[i] ].remove(); 

    } 

    removeArtboards( [0,2,3] );  "

end tell
