Meng defence lawyer accuses Canadian police officer of ‘cover-up’
Al JazeeraHuawei executive Meng Wanzhou is fighting extradition to the United States, where she faces fraud charges. A lawyer for Meng Wanzhou has accused a top Canadian law enforcement officer of engaging in a “cover-up”, as the Huawei executive continued to fight extradition from Canada to the United States. Defence lawyer Scott Fenton on Thursday accused Royal Canadian Mounted Police Sergeant Janice Vander Graaf, who oversaw Meng’s arrest in 2018, of “trying to cover up” for subordinate RCMP officers. Fenton alleged Vander Graaf had deviated from her initial court submissions as to whether RCMP officers had sent Meng’s electronic serial numbers to the US Federal Bureau of Investigation. Canadian law enforcement officials arrested Meng, the chief financial officer of Chinese telecom giant Huawei, in December 2018 on a warrant from the US.
