Extradition hearing for Huawei CFO opens Monday in Vancouver

It is a court case that is being watched closely in Beijing, Ottawa, and Washington.

Monday marks the opening of the extradition hearing for Huawei CFO Meng Wanzhou. It’s been more than a year since Meng was arrested in Canada at the United States’ request.

Meng is accused of bank fraud in violation of American sanctions on Iran.
