Two suspected Chinese 'overseas police' stations in Japan

The Foreign Ministry on Monday presented the findings of a report by a Spanish NGO that revealed China may have established "overseas police" service stations in Japan, at a joint meeting of the Liberal Democratic Party's Foreign Affairs Subcommittee and others.

According to the report, Chinese police authorities have established two stations in Japan. The Fuzhou public security bureau in China's Fujian Province has allegedly established an overseas police station in Tokyo and Jiangsu Province's Nantong public security bureau is also believed to have established one, but its location is unknown.

The lawmakers at Monday's meeting called on authorities to uncover the whole picture regarding China's activities.
