I don’t doubt it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capital_punishment_in_China

Although most death sentences are “with reprieve,” which seldom lead to execution: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_sentence_with_reprieve

All of those are on the public record.

What I’m saying is: where is their evidence for an “estimated thousands of executions carried out” that are secret?

So you're going with wilful ignorance. Neat.

Name a country that executes more people per year than China does.

Actually, since you can't do that, don't worry about it.

Anyhoo, they'll execute him.

A gunshot to the head is more likely.
