VANCOUVER, June 29 (Reuters) - Lawyers fighting the extradition of Huawei s chief financial officer to the United States on Tuesday presented internal emails from British bank HSBC (HSBA.L) that they said disproved U.S. claims that Huawei misled the bank.
CFO Meng Wanzhou s legal team said the emails and documents submitted to a Canadian court showed at least two senior HSBC leaders were aware of connections between Huawei (HWT.UL) and its Iranian subsidiary, Skycom. HSBC declined to comment.

VANCOUVER - Lawyers for Huawei executive Meng Wanzhou made what they said was an unusual request to admit new evidence in her extradition case Tuesday, but they argued the documents prove the United States has misled a Canadian court in its summary of the case against her.
Mark Sandler told a B.C. Supreme Court judge the documents obtained from HSBC, Meng s alleged victim, include internal email chains and spreadsheets that undermine the allegations of fraud against Meng.
