VANCOUVER - Huawei Technologies Co used code names and secret subsidiaries to conduct business in Syria, Sudan and Iran, the US alleged in the extradition case related to sanctions violations against the company's chief financial officer.

In internal spreadsheets, Huawei also used the code"A5" to refer to Sudan and"A7" to Syria, the US said in the documents submitted to the Canadian government in support of its request for the extradition of company CFO Meng Wanzhou. The US is seeking to extradite Meng - daughter of Huawei's billionaire founder Ren Zhengfei - after accusing her and others at the company of conspiring to trick banks into conducting more than US$100 million worth of transactions that may have violated US sanctions.

"The motivation for these misrepresentations stemmed from Huawei's need to move money out of countries that are subject to US or EU sanctions - such as Iran, Syria, or Sudan - through the international banking system," the Justice Department said in its request for Canada to arrest Meng as she arrived at Vancouver's airport last December.
