Embattled Huawei Technologies chief financial officer Meng Wanzhou filed a lawsuit against the Canadian government, police and border officials, claiming her civil rights were violated when she was detained at Vancouver International Airport in December. Meng was transferring flights at the time of her arrest and was in custody for several days before posting bail. Meng’s lawsuit was filed on the same day Canada announced it would allow the U.S. extradition request for the exec to proceed. China has repeatedly urged Canada to release Meng since her December arrest. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Lu Kang on Monday accused Canada and the U.S. of abusing their bilateral extradition treaty.
