Canadian justice lawyer: US didn't mislead in Huawei arrest

 A Canadian government lawyer says there is no evidence to support defense allegations the U.S. acted in bad faith or omitted evidence in trying to mislead an extradition hearing for a top executive at Chinese communications giant Huawei Technologies

VANCOUVER, British Columbia -- There is no evidence to support defense allegations the U.S. acted in bad faith or omitted evidence in an attempt to mislead an extradition hearing for a top executive at Chinese communications giant Huawei Technologies, a Canadian government lawyer said Thursday. The argument came in a hearing for Meng Wanzhou, who is Huawei's chief financial officer as well as the daughter of the company’s founder, was arrested by Canadian authorities at Vancouver’s airport in late 2018. The U.S. wants her extradited to face fraud charges. The arrest infuriated Beijing, which sees her case as a political move designed to prevent China’s rise. Over the next few weeks, Justice Heather Holmes will hear final arguments on whether Meng should be extradited to face trial in the United States.
