The extradition hearing for Huawei Chief Financial Officer Meng Wanzhou was disrupted on Thursday after prosecutors revealed that a Canadian border officer in the witness box had unlawfully approached an official from the Canadian Justice Department who was not part of the case with questions about her testimony.

The witness, Nicole Goodman, a chief with Canada's border agency at Vancouver's airport, admitted to the court that she had given "incomplete" evidence in her testimony the day before.
