Nissan says ex-leader Carlos Ghosn still behind serious misconduct GlobeBusiness
In a public statement, Nissan Motor Co. reiterated its view that former chairman Carlos Ghosn misstated his compensation and diverted company assets for personal gain. Nissan said Tuesday it will still pursue legal action against its former chairman, Carlos Ghosn, despite his escape from Japan to Lebanon.
Nissan’s statement was the first word from the company since Ghosn’s flight last week. The automaker and Japanese prosecutors allege Ghosn misstated his future compensation and diverted company assets for personal gain. He says he is innocent. Ghosn said in a statement last week that he wanted to escape “injustice.” Critics of the Japanese judicial system say his case exemplifies its tendency to move too slowly and keep suspects in detention for too long.
She reiterated her defence of the justice system and denounced Ghosn’s escape as an “unjustifiable” crime.
