Tokyo prosecutors are considering pressing a fresh fourth charge against ex-Nissan boss Carlos Ghosn over financial misconduct, after he is believed to have bought a luxury boat with money from the car maker
Former Nissan Motor Chairman Carlos Ghosn sits inside a car as he leaves his lawyer's office after being released on bail from Tokyo Detention House, in Tokyo, Japan, March 6, 2019.
Some of the money is believed to have been used to buy a luxury boat allegedly used by Ghosn and his family, according to a source familiar with the matter. Tokyo district prosecutors are discussing the case with more senior colleagues before deciding whether to move ahead, Japanese media said. "The prosecutor can hit Ghosn with new charges without sending him back to prison. Prosecutors would need to again justify a detention by saying he was a flight risk and could destroy evidence and the chances seem fairly slim," said the lawyer, who asked to remain anonymous.
Some of this money ended up in personal accounts, or was used for purchases and investments by Ghosn -- mainly to buy a yacht and make investments via his son's firm -- according to this person."The payments made by Renault to the distributor in Oman have not been diverted from their commercial objectives and under no circumstances has all or part of such payments benefited Carlos Ghosn or his family," said the representative in a statement.
