Japan issues arrest warrant for Nissan ex-chair Carlos Ghosn’s wife
Prosecutors said in a statement that Carole Ghosn gave false testimony to a Tokyo court last year in her husband’s case about the transfer of money from one company to another that allegedly caused losses to Nissan.She also denied knowing various people, or meeting with them, and the statements were false, they said. The allegations cited were unrelated to Ghosn’s escape.
The Lebanese presidential palace said Tuesday that Lebanon’s president met with the Japanese ambassador and they discussed the case, but did not provide any other details. This is the first known meeting between the president and a Japanese diplomat since Ghosn arrived in the country on Dec. 30. The Japanese automaker said in a statement that Ghosn engaged in serious misconduct while leading the Nissan-Renault-Mitsubishi alliance.
Japanese major business daily Nikkei reported, without citing sources, that dozens of people in various countries helped to plan Ghosn’s clandestine departure.
