Corporate veil and criminal law

1) Can the court summon documents under S 91, from a company, who is a wholly owned subsidiary of the accused company?


Will the concept of separate legal entity prevail or the corporate veil will be lifted? Does it usually get lifted in criminal matters? 


2) The subsidiary is also a foreign company, does the court have territorial jurisdiction under criminal law or just section 91 to summon documents from foreign companies? 


Thanks in advance :)
