A Chinese activist who spent nearly 90 days camping out at Narita airport after being barred multiple times from going home said Sunday that he was ending his protest after Chinese officials visited him.
Feng Zhenghu has been living in Narita International Airport since early November to protest China's refusal to let him return to his homeland from Japan.
He angered the Chinese government by writing about the alleged wrongdoings of local authorities and by supporting student protests. Amnesty International describes Feng, who spent three years in prison, as a prominent human rights defender.
