Meng, the daughter of billionaire Huawei founder Ren Zhengfei, has said she is innocent and is fighting extradition.A PowerPoint presentation that Meng gave to a HSBC banker in Hong Kong in 2013 has been cited as key evidence against her. Without those disclosures, the lawyers said, the U.S. summary of the PowerPoint was “materially misleading.”
In addition, the lawyers said, the credit facility was never drawn on by Huawei and was canceled in June 2017.
