Huawei CFO: Final weeks of US extradition hearings begin

After more than two years, legal proceedings in the US extradition hearings of Huawei CFO Meng Wanzhou are entering their final weeks.

Huawei Chief Financial Officer Meng Wanzhou returns to a Canadian courtroom on Wednesday for the final weeks of her United States extradition hearings, as the legal proceedings running more than two years draw to a close. Meng, 49, was arrested in December 2018 at Vancouver International Airport on a warrant from the US, which charged her with misleading HSBC Holdings Plc about Huawei’s business dealings in Iran, potentially causing the bank to violate US economic sanctions. Meng, who has said she is innocent, has been fighting her extradition case while under house arrest in Vancouver.
