[Toronto, 30th Reuters]-China communications equipment giant Huawei [HWT.UL] arrested chief financial officer (CFO) arrested in Vancouver, Canada last December It was revealed on the 30th that his defense team, who alleged that the procedure was infringement of personal rights, provided the court with details of the additional materials required by the Canadian authorities.
Canadian authorities arrested Mr. Tsuji in Vancouver at the request of the United States. The US has subsequently prosecuted the company and Mr. Sakaki for accusing financial institutions of Huawei's transactions with Iran. He accused him of innocence and urged the suspension of handing over to the United States.
According to a document published by the British Columbia Supreme Court on the 30th, Mr. Sung's defense team has made electronic contact with the Canadian Department of Justice, the Border Services Agency (CBSA), and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), the federal police. Requests additional submissions such as emails and other records. The Canadian authorities have proved that they have abused their power and want to stop the process of handing over to the United States.
The requested documents relate to the fact that the Ministry of Justice, CBSA, and RCMP worked together on November 30 prior to the arrest and the arrest on December 1.
Meanwhile, the Canadian Attorney General's defense team started oral argument in court on behalf of the United States on the same day. It will be finished this week.
The defense team filed last week, claiming that the authorities have already provided enough material to Mr. Tsuji. There was no evidence that the police and border security authorities at the time of the arrest were improper, violating Mr. Tsuji's rights, and there was no need to disclose additional materials.
The oral argument of Mr. Roh ’s defense team ended last week.
Experts point out that the trial of handing over itself will start in January next year and that the legal battle may be prolonged.
