The hearing came after she was arrested at Vancouver International Airport on Dec. 1, on allegations that she violated U.S. trade sanctions on Iran.
A Crown lawyer on Monday said she poses this risk because of her wealth and a lack of ties to Canada.

Court documents released over the weekend hinted at the ties that Meng has kept on Canada’s West Coast.
Meng and her husband Liu Xiaozong own two properties in Vancouver, one at 4005 West 28th Avenue that was bought in 2009, and another at 1603 Matthews Street, which was bought in 2016, affidavits showed.
Together, the homes were assessed at just under $22 million in 2017.

Once the kids were finished school, Meng would spend “many weeks, sometimes months” in Vancouver in the summertime, an affidavit said.
“I always try to spend at least two to three weeks in Vancouver every summer,” it said.

“My father founded Huawei and I would never do anything that would cause the company reputational damage,” she said in an affidavit.
“I believe that breaching my bail conditions would cause such damage.”

If Meng were to flee to China, then bringing her to justice would prove that much more difficult, as the People’s Republic doesn’t have an extradition treaty with Canada or the U.S. 6park.com

Should Meng be released, then private security provider Lions Gate Risk Management will have the authority to apprehend her if she breaches her bail conditions, her lawyer David Martin said Monday.

She would have 24/7 security with a driver and security team, a home security package, and she would have to provide them with a weekly itinerary, Lions Gate executive director Scot Filer said.
She would also be able to travel within a surveillance zone.

The Crown asked Filer whether he could assure the court that Meng would be prevented from breaching her bail.
He couldn’t provide guarantees but he said he was confident that her security would “satisfy the court.”
