Answer

Ken's execution was carried out by hanging, a method that involves suspending a person from a rope or noose around the neck until death occurs. This method has a long history and has been used in various forms for centuries. It is considered a quick and relatively painless method of execution, as the sudden drop causes damage to the spinal cord, resulting in loss of consciousness and eventually death.
