VANCOUVER - Evidence used by the United States to justify the extradition of Huawei Technologies chief financial officer Meng Wanzhou is"unreliable and defective" and should not be considered by a Canadian court, Meng's lawyers argued in documents released to the media on Friday .
Meng, 48, was arrested in December 2018 on a warrant from the United States which alleges that she misled the bank HSBC about Huawei's business dealings in Iran.
The submissions show that the evidence used by the United States as part of their case is"manifestly unreliable - so unreliable and defective - to justify refusing to commit for extradition," lawyers for Huawei wrote. The issue is scheduled to be argued in a British Columbia courtroom in September as part of Meng's extradition hearing.On Monday, Meng will attend hearings in a Canadian courtroom via telephone, arguing for the Canadian attorney-general to release more confidential documents relating to her arrest to show that her rights were abused.
The Canadian attorney-general has held back some of the documents related to her arrest claiming privilege.
