    Additional context (there were questions over at [email protected] : His superior Lai Xiaomin:

    • investigated in April 2018
    • arrested in Nov 2018
    • prosecuted in Feb 2019
    • first court trial in Oct 2020
    • sentenced to death on Jan 5, 2021
    • appeal rejected, verdict maintained on Jan 21, 2021
    • executed on Jan 29, 2021
    • corruption activities were between 2008 and 2018

    As for Bai Tianhui:

    • arrested in Jan 2019
    • first court trial, sentenced to death, on May 28, 2024
    • corruption activities were between 2014 and 2018

    The jig was up when Lai was investigated in 2018, Bai was already doomed from that point on.
