Unlike some other countries practicing capital punishment, in China, financial crimes such as counterfeiting, fraud, tax fraud, corruption, property crimes such as theft, and smuggling cultural relics, gold, silver or other precious metals can be punishable by death. These are some of the 68 crimes that are eligible for the death penalty in China.

This clearly depends on the state's own interpretation of "unlawful."

Quote:
20. Unlawfully detaining another person or unlawfully deprives the personal freedom of another person by any other means AND if he causes injury, disability or death to the victim by violence.


22. Where a functionary of a State organ commits any of the crimes mentioned in (20).
