VANCOUVER, British Columbia — The dishonesty of a senior executive for Chinese communications giant Huawei Technologies put a bank at risk of violating U.S. sanctions against Iran, a Canadian justice department lawyer told an extradition hearing Thursday.
The lengthy extradition proceeding is entering a phase which involves arguments over the U.S. government’s request to extradite Meng. After the meeting, HSBC made money transfers involving Skycom which could have caused the bank a liability, Frater said. In wrapping up his submission, Frater said he disagreed with Meng’s defense team that the case against her was unique, unprecedented and a legal stretch.Meng, who attended court wearing an electronic monitoring device on her ankle, followed the proceedings through a translator.The judge isn’t expected to rule on Meng’s extradition until later in the year. Whatever her decision, it will likely be appealed.
Spavor and fellow Canadian Michael Kovrig were arrested in December of 2018 in apparent retaliation to Meng’s arrest.
