Because the crime was bullshit most likely, the us depuis of justice has an history of using bogus corruption accusation to extort money to competitors of american compagnies.

Reminds of the Alstom case and the book The American Trap: My battle to expose America's secret economic war against the rest of the world

Die USA sind von den genannten dreien die einzigen, die einen aufstrebenden Wettbewerber mit allen Mitteln zerstören werden. Wolfowitz-Doktrin, kann man im konkreten Beispiel schön nachlesen bei Pierucci's American Trap.
Ah, the classic American trap. https://www.amazon.com/American-Trap-Americas-economic-against/dp/1529326869
> all Americans irrespective of their origin country should support America in its geopolitical pursuit. This concept is universal. You support your country no matter what!
So americans should support military aid to pakistans war with india? support the war in Afghanistan? War in Iraq? War in yemen? War in syria? Support stealing companies by force? Support the Vietnam War? Support the kuwait war? Support the native American genocide? Support the Mexican cession? Support the Iranian coup? Guatemalan coup? Congolese coup? Chilean coup? Nicaraguan coup? Honduran coup? Haitian coup? El Salvadoran coup? Bolivian coup?
Just because we don't want china's to be America's next victim, doesn't mean we support the PRC over America.

My mother did an LLD regarding the US legal system and its intricacies unknown to most. Ninety-nine percent of what she discovered was unknown even to most American lawyers.

Get ready to have your mind blown away..... Frédéric Pierucci now consults on what he has learned first hand during his involuntary "stay" at a high-security US prison. If I hadn't lived through my mom's four year research about the US legal system, I would have NOT believed a word in Mr. Pierucci's book.
Frankly, I always tought the meng whengzou case was extremely dubious. It seemed a lot like the objective of the americans was to use meng whengzou as an hostage to either extract a large financial settlement from huawei or have an excuse to close them the american market. there are other instances where the american used the same tactic against Siemens and Alstom.

meng wenghzou was not the first, the same thing happened to the Alstom and Siemens. you might like this book :

As much as I dislike the CCP, im also thinking it could be a good thing that the americans have a bit of competition in the hegemon department, it might push them to treat their allies with a bit more consideration.
The American Trap is what they are reading now.

Basically it seems the US arrested Pierucci, and 'coincidentally', a few months later, US's General Electric bought a great deal of Alstrom. This basically sums it up in the narrative: https://news.cgtn.com/news/3d3d514f3445544f34457a6333566d54/index.html It's not necessarily causal, of course, but all of these things are always done in the dark, that's the thing.
Of course, the BBC has its own shitty narrative: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-47765974

I think if you read these it's pretty evident what's happening. I don't think we know half of what happened underneath, and only scratched the surface, just as what happened with Huawei now. I haven't found anything related to the apparent Toshiba case though.
