HSBC does not need to hand over banking documents requested by Huawei chief financial officer Meng Wanzhou as part of her effort to resist a US extradition order, a judge in London’s High Court said.

Meng, who filed a lawsuit at the UK court, was arrested by Canadian police in 2018 on behalf of the US Department of Justice, which has accused her in a criminal case of misleading HSBC about Huawei’s business ties in Iran while the country was subject to US sanctions.
