Meng, who is the daughter of Huawei’s founder Ren Zhengfei, was detained in December 2018 as she passed through Vancouver Airport on the way to Mexico City. Last week, a two-and-a-half-year legal process came to a conclusion, leaving the fate of Meng in the hands of a British Columbia judge.Meng, who is the daughter of Huawei’s founder Ren Zhengfei, was detained in December 2018 as she passed through Vancouver Airport on the way to Mexico City.
