VANCOUVER – A Canadian judge yesterday ended extradition proceedings against Huawei executive Meng Wanzhou and ordered her bail conditions lifted, effectively freeing her and bringing to a close a nearly three-year legal saga.
The decision by British Columbia Supreme Court associate chief justice Heather Holmes comes after Meng earlier reached a deferred prosecution agreement with the United States to avoid felony fraud charges.
“I’ve signed the order of discharge,” said Holmes at the end of a short hearing in which Canadian government lawyers acting on behalf of the US requested a stay of proceedings and the removal of bail conditions.
