Lawyers representing Huawei executive Meng Wanzhou fighting to win release of more confidential documents

Lawyers representing Huawei executive Meng Wanzhou are back in BC Supreme Court today fighting to win release of more confidential documents tied to the case.

Meng's legal team says some of the documents relate to her detention at Vancouver's airport in December 2018 and could shed light on her claim that her rights were violated before her arrest.

Meng is wanted in the US on fraud charges, which she and Huawei deny, and this chapter in her extradition battle began yesterday with Meng attending via phone link.

The matter could continue all week and today's arguments will focus on the technicalities of legal privilege related to access to the disputed documents.
