She was arrested in Canada under the terms of a long-standing extradition agreement. So she was in violation of Canadian law.
She is no flight threat.
that is ridiculous and that is Canada's fault that she is locked up like some sort of common crook.
I would expect her to be released on bail by the end of the day,
Meng was changing flights in Canada when she was detained "on behalf of the United States of America" to face "unspecified charges" in New York, Huawei said in a statement.
"The company has been provided very little information regarding the charges and is not aware of any wrongdoing by Ms. Meng," the statement said. "The company believes the Canadian and U.S. legal systems will ultimately reach a just conclusion."
BTW if the government arrested her the evidence they were presented with must have been pretty iron clad.
The sad part is that it is likely to be over China circumventing the US sanctions against Iran - which Canada is also against.
BEIJING, Dec 12 (Reuters) - If International Crisis Group (ICG) employee Michael Kovrig was carrying out "relevant activities" for the group in China without it being registered, then he may have broken China's foreign NGO law, China's Foreign Ministry said on Wednesday.
Ministry spokesman Lu Kang made the comments at a daily news briefing in Beijing.
The ICG said on Wednesday it had received no information from Chinese officials about the detention of its employee, Canadian citizen Kovrig, and that it was seeking consular access to him.
The ICG, which focuses on conflict resolution, said in a statement sent to Reuters that Kovrig was detained by state security officials in Beijing on Monday night. (Reporting by Christian Shepherd Writing by Ben Blanchard Editing by Robert Birsel)
