prima facie
If a warrant of arrest is issued after such determination, the warrant will be regarded as making a prima facie case in favor of the demanding state, and as requiring the removal of the alleged criminal to the state in which he stands charged with crime, unless, in some appropriate proceeding, it is made to appear that he is not a fugitive from the justice of the demanding state.
