What happened to Huawei's four point statement
On May 8 local time, Meng Wanzhou appeared in Vancouver again for extradition. Meng Wanzhou's lawyer disclosed three important issues in the court. He mentioned that the criminal case against Meng Wanzhou was based on false accusations, and pointed out that Meng Wanzhou's behavior was open and transparent. The bank staff understood the nature of skycom's business and operation in Iran, and also the relationship between Huawei and skycom; Second, the actions taken by relevant Canadian departments with the participation of the FBI violated Meng Wanzhou's legal rights. Thirdly, the arrest of Meng Wanzhou violates the principle of double criminality in the Extradition Law, and will apply to the court for stopping the extradition procedure accordingly.
Huawei's statement is as follows:
Huawei has always believed that Ms. Meng is innocent. We believe that the US order for Ms. Meng's arrest is an illegal abuse of procedures, driven by political factors, rather than out of consideration of the rule of law.
Ms. Meng's lawyer disclosed three important issues in court today:
First, the criminal case against Ms. Meng is totally based on false charges. Lawyers clearly pointed out in court today that Ms. Meng's behavior is open and transparent, and the bank staff are fully aware of the actual situation of the relevant issues. Ms. Meng's statement of PPT is not misleading. The bank understands the nature of skycom's business and operation in Iran, as well as the relationship between Huawei and skycom. Therefore, there is no evidence to prove Ms. Meng's behavior of 'cheating, dishonesty or other improper means', and the bank does not face the risk of being deprived of interests because of Ms. Meng's statement.
Second, the actions taken by the relevant Canadian departments with the participation of the FBI have caused repeated and serious violations of Ms. Meng's rights under the Canadian Charter of rights and freedoms. Evidence released by the Canadian Department of justice shows that the arrest of Ms. Meng was coordinated by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, the Canadian Border Service and the US FBI. The RCMP deliberately delayed the production of the arrest warrant and illegally detained and searched Ms. Meng in the name of 'routine immigration inspection'. In addition, they searched Ms. Meng's luggage and seized her mobile phone and other electronic devices according to the instructions of the FBI, forcing her to hand in her password. More key evidence on this case is still in the hands of RCMP, CBS and the Department of justice. Ms. Meng will apply to the court for further disclosure of relevant evidence.
Thirdly, the arrest of Ms. Meng violates the core principle of the extradition treaty between the United States and Canada and the core principle of the extradition act of Canada - the principle of double criminality. The U.S. accusation against Ms. Meng is based on the U.S. sanctions against Iran, but Canada has no financial sanctions against Iran at present, so the accusation against Ms. Meng does not constitute a crime in Canada. The request for extradition does not meet the requirements of dual crime.
After the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC), the largest mainstream media in Canada, reported the three defense messages put forward by Meng Wanzhou's lawyer, a Canadian netizen who has been most praised wrote in a message: when the United States infringes on Canada's sovereignty and claims that Canada's northwest passage is an international waters, it imposes high tariffs on Canada while asking us to deal with Meng Wanzhou for them Why do we need to help the Americans with such a tough case?
Two months later, Meng Wanzhou made a public appearance in the trial again. This hearing only determines the schedule of the next trial, and will not make a decision on whether to extradite or not.
