LONDON (Reuters) – A British judge on Friday blocked the release of internal HSBC documents relating to U.S. fraud allegations against Huawei Chief Financial Officer Meng Wanzhou.<\/p>\n

Meng is facing charges of bank fraud in the United States for allegedly misleading HSBC about Huawei\u2019s business dealings in Iran, causing the bank to violate U.S. sanctions.<\/p>\n

She has been under house arrest in Canada since being detained at Vancouver airport in 2018 and has become one of the most high-profile figures in a trade war between China and the United States.<\/p>\n

In a hearing at Britain\u2019s High Court last week, her lawyers argued that the charges against her were based on a presentation she gave to a senior HSBC executive in 2013.<\/p>\n

The legal team said that \u201can incomplete version\u201d of her statements in the presentation had been presented by U.S. authorities and asked the court to order the release of HSBC documents detailing the contents of the meeting.<\/p>\n

The judge\u2019s written judgment on Friday declined Meng\u2019s application and ordered her team to pay legal costs of 80,000 pounds ($111,936).<\/p>\n

A Huawei spokesman said: \u201cHuawei is disappointed by today\u2019s court ruling. The pursuit of justice benefits from access to relevant information and clarity of fact.\u201d<\/p>\n

An HSBC spokeswoman said: \u201cThis application for disclosure in the UK was without merit and we are pleased that the High Court agreed with our position.\u201d<\/p>\n

($1 = 0.7147 pounds)<\/p>\n
