Canada judge won t allow Huawei CFO to use HSBC documents

By Moira Warburton on Jul 12, 2021 9:43AM In US extradition case. A Canadian judge has denied Huawei chief financial officer Meng Wanzhou s application to add a trove of documents her legal team received from HSBC as evidence to her US extradition case, the judge announced. Meng, 49, is facing extradition from Canada to the United States on charges of bank fraud for allegedly misleading HSBC about Huawei s business dealings in Iran, potentially causing the bank to break US sanctions. She has been held under house arrest in Vancouver since December 2018, when she was first detained. Her legal team received over 300 pages of internal documents from HSBC through a court on Hong Kong, which the defence argued should be entered as evidence because they would disprove the basis for the United States extradition claim.

Her reasons for the decision will follow, she added. Lawyers for Meng told the judge in June that the documents include internal email chains and spreadsheets that undermine the allegations of fraud against Meng, proving the United States misled the court in its summary to Canada of the case against her. Mark Sandler and his colleague Scott Fenton, lawyers for Meng, argued that the record of the case prepared against their client by U.S. prosecutors, and shared with Canadian officials to justify her arrest, was not an accurate description of HSBC s knowledge about Huawei s control over the company Skycom.
