The Canadian Ministry of Justice said that Huawei's chief financial officer Meng Wanzhou could be extradited to the United States because her behavior was crime in both countries.
According to Reuters, the Canadian Ministry of Justice released documents on Friday (January 10) local time.The Chief of Prosecutor of Canada said that the essence of Meng Wanzhou's banking business constitutes fraud, which is a crime in Canada.
The first week of Meng Wanzhou's extradition hearing will discuss the problem of dual crimes.
Meng Wanzhou was detained at the end of 2018, and her extradition hearing will be held in Vancouver on January 20.
The United States accused Meng Wanzhou lying to the bank with the violation of Iranian sanctions.
Meng Wanzhou is now under house arrest. She denies the United States' allegations and states that the Canadian authorities violate her rights during the arrest.
Meng Wanzhou's lawyer believes that Meng Wanzhou cannot be handed over to the United States. To do this, Meng Wanzhou must meet the dual criminal standards, that is, both in Canada and the United States constitute a crime.
