Chinese business executive Meng Wanzhou was detained by Canadian authorities and faces extradition to the United States in a move that Beijing slammed as violating her \"human rights.\" Meng, who was taken into custody on Dec. 1, is the chief financial officer of Chinese electronics and telecommunications multinational Huawei. The company is the world's second-largest telecommunications equipment and service provider, after South Korea\'s Samsung, and recently surpassed Apple. Washington has previously raised concerns about the Chinese conglomerate because of its links to Beijing\'s government.
