Border officer provides device passwords to police
A Canadian border officer who dealt with Meng Wanzhou at Vancouver’s airport in the hours before her arrest said he made an “embarrassing” and “heart-wrenching” mistake, when his handwritten note with the passwords of Meng’s electronic devices ended up in police hands, breaching privacy laws.
Meng’s lawyers say it was part of a covert plot by the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), to gather evidence for the American FBI.
