Do NPC-s taken prisoner drop loot?

Sometimes when I kill a character, they talk to me after the battle and beg for mercy. Do they still drop their loot even if I take them prisoners?
I couldn't really check by myself because it happened to me once after a very hard battle and I didn't have patience to repeat (I just killed the guy outright, he deserved it).
If not, then would they drop the same stuff if I killed them in the prison?
Best Answer
No they do not and you simply miss their loot. If by chance somebody offers something for one of your prisoners before they escape, then it's worth it. Otherwise it's not.
