The home of a Chinese family who defied property developers in a high-profile campaign has finally been demolished. The dispute became a cause celebre for ordinary Chinese people who have tried to fight property developers. The family had insisted on staying in their home, because they were not satisfied with the compensation the authorities were offering.

According to state news agency Xinhua, the couple have now agreed to move into another apartment elsewhere in Chongqing.
