Huawei CFO suing Canada over December arrest

The lawyers for Huawei Chief Financial Officer Meng Wanzhou are suing the Canadian government, its border agency and federal police, alleging their client was detained, searched and interrogated for three hours in violation of her constitutional rights.

In a civil lawsuit filed in the British Columbia Supreme Court on Friday, Meng's lawyers said the manner in which officers obtained evidence and information from Meng constituted serious violations of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Meng is the daughter of Huawei's founder. Meng, who is out on bail, is due to appear in a Vancouver court at 10am PST on Wednesday, when a date will be set for her extradition hearing. The Canadian government approved her extradition proceedings on Friday.
