According to the Global Times, on the morning of December 18, 2023, the Nanchang Intermediate People's Court carried out the death penalty on Lao Rongzhi in accordance with the execution order issued by the Supreme People's Court.
According to China's Criminal Law, the death penalty is only applicable to criminals who have committed extremely serious crimes. For criminals who should be sentenced to death, if it is not necessary to carry out the sentence immediately, the death penalty may be given and a two-year reprieve.
In order to ensure the strictness and accuracy of death sentences and to prevent wrongful and indiscriminate killings, China's laws stipulate special procedures for death sentences and a system for reviewing and approving death sentences. Even if the death penalty is imposed in both the first and second instance instances, the death penalty cannot be carried out in cases where the defendant does not appeal, and all sentences of immediate execution, except for cases directly adjudicated by the Supreme People's Court, shall be reported to the Supreme People's Court for examination and approval before they can be executed.
The order for the execution of the death penalty shall be signed by the President of the Supreme People's Court.
After a lower people's court receives an order from the Supreme People's Court to enforce the death penalty, it shall deliver it for enforcement within 7 days.
The execution of the death penalty is carried out by the court of first instance.
There are two ways to carry out the death penalty in our country . First, shooting;Second, drug injections.
According to the regulations, there are two types of places where the death penalty is carried out: first, a special execution groundSecond, designated places of detention, including prisons, detention centers, and other places where criminals are detained.
In addition, in the approval decision, the three crimes that Lao Rongzhi was suspected of were all deprived of political rights.
What are political rights?
To put it simply: 1. The right to vote and the right to be elected;(ii) The right to freedom of expression, of the press, of assembly, of association, of procession and of demonstration;3. The right to hold positions in state organs and to hold leading positions in state-owned companies, enterprises, public institutions, and people's organizations.
why is it necessary to be sentenced to death and deprived of political rights ?This is because some power interests do not disappear because they are deprived of life . For example, if he is not deprived of his political rights for life, he will continue to enjoy these rights after he is executedThe possibility that their relatives or others may exercise the right of publication on behalf of the offender, depriving the offender of his political rights for life would prevent these problems from arising.
