present def maybe inspired by HYDCD
[crucial torture of drawning sb. by tying him to a large stone] /sic/

it's not torture but homicide.
you wouldn't tie her to a rock but rather tie the rock onto her.
anyway the def sounds strange (although inspired by Ch dicts)
Diff:
- 沉潭 沉潭 [chen2 tan2] /drowning sb tied to a rock (as a form of torture)/
+ 沉潭 沉潭 [chen2 tan2] /to sink sb to the bottom of a pond (a kind of private punishment, especially for unfaithful wives)/
