Huawei exec Meng Wanzhou's lawyers fight for her freedom at bail hearing


Meng was detained by Canadian authorities at the request of the U.S. during a layover at Vancouver's airport on Dec. 1. The U.S. has accused Huawei of using a Hong Kong shell company to sell equipment in Iran in violation of U.S. sanctions. In arguing against Meng's application for temporary release, Canadian prosecutors said Friday that the 46-year-old has vast resources and a strong incentive to flee the country. On Monday, Meng attorney David Martin said his client's husband would put up both their Vancouver homes plus $1 million Canadian ($750,000) for a total value of $15 million Canadian ($11.2 million) as collateral. Asked Monday what those steps might be, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Lu Kang said only that "it totally depends on the Canadian side itself."
