A Quebec court will decide later this month whether to grant bail to a former Hydro-Québec employee who is charged with allegedly sending trade secrets to China.

Yuesheng Wang, 35, appeared via videoconference at the court in Longueuil, Quebec, on Nov. 18, after he was arrested and charged with four espionage-related offences, including obtaining trade secrets, fraud for obtaining trade secrets, breach of trust by public officer, and unauthorized use of computer, according to a release issued by police on Nov. 14.
