Dissidents trapped inside Taiwan airport allowed in after 125 days

Two Chinese activists who spent more than four months trapped in limbo at a Taiwanese airport have been temporarily allowed to stay on the island, officials said Thursday.

Liu Xinglian, 64, and Yan Kefen, 44, spent 125 days marooned in the transit area of Taoyuan airport after they arrived from Bangkok in September last year.

The pair ran from China because of their political activism and were granted refugee status by the UN in Thailand.
