This document consists of a chronological listing of all available accounts of death sentences and executions reported by various media from January to June 1992. As the actual number of death sentences and executions is considered a “state secret” according to Chinese officials, these figures probably fall short of the true total of executions and death sentences. AI is not in a position to assess the accuracy of each report. The list includes the following details (where known): source and dates of report; date of reported sentence or execution; province or city; names or numbers of alleged offenders; alleged offences; number of sentences imposed without stay of execution; number of executions; number of sentences imposed with a 2 year stay of execution.
