The trial of a former Hydro-Québec employee accused of economic espionage for Beijing has been postponed by a day after the utility requested certain corporate information be kept confidential.
The trial for Yuesheng Wang, 38, a former Hydro-Québec employee, was scheduled to begin on Oct. 6, but Quebec Court Judge Jean-Philippe Marcoux postponed the proceedings to Oct. 7 after the utility’s lawyer raised concerns that evidence presented in open court could reveal sensitive business and client information.
