Executive’s terms on bail won’t change

-

VANCOUVER, British Columbia

— A Canadian judge Friday rejected a bid to ease bail conditions for a senior executive of Chinese tech giant Huawei who was arrested in Canada on a U.S. extraditio­n warrant.

British Columbia Supreme Court Justice William Ehrcke said the current restrictio­ns are the minimum required to ensure Meng Wanzhou, the daughter of Huawei’s founder and its chief financial officer, does not flee Canada.

The judge dismissed Meng’s applicatio­n for changes to her bail conditions, which would have allowed her to leave her Vancouver home outside the hours of her overnight curfew without the presence of security.

Meng remains free on bail in her multimilli­on-dollar mansion.
