The condition for resolution is straightforward, requiring a formal prison sentence on any charges by the end of 2026, with clear guidance that initial sentences count regardless of subsequent appeals. The primary risk stems from how information is verified: while official Chinese government and law enforcement releases are prioritized, the rules permit resolution based on a consensus of credible reporting. Given the opacity surrounding Chinese military legal proceedings, determining whether unofficial or leaked reports constitute an actionable consensus introduces meaningful decider latitude if official announcements are absent or vague.
