Prof. Kita University's Japanese male restraint in China Suspected of being involved in spying

According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan's Overseas Japanese Safety Division, a Japanese man in his 40s was detained last month by the authorities on suspicion of violating Chinese law.

According to officials, this man may have been suspected of being involved in espionage because he was a professor at Hokkaido University who also worked in the Ministry of Defense think tank and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The staff of the Japanese embassy in Beijing has already been meeting and collecting information.
