Has Carlos Ghosn Escaped Now? Former Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn and his wife of four years, Carole Ghosn, are now wanted by Japanese authorities for misusing corporate funds to pay for his wedding, houses, private jets, and other expenses.
Carlos Ghosn was allowed to depart Japan on a private jet, according to The Wall Street Journal and Nikkei Asian Review, due to a serious security failure at a major Japanese airport.
Ghosn’s Net Worth Shrink By $70 Million From $120 Million
Carlos’s fortune has reduced by 40% since his arrest at Tokyo’s Haneda Airport more than a year ago, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. This figure has reduced drastically since he first appeared in court.
He was born in Brazil and is a Lebanese businessman. After graduation in 1978, he worked for Michelin, Europe’s premier tire manufacturer, for 18 years, initially training and working in several sites in France and Germany.
Why He Is Wanted With An Arrest Warrant-Arrest Details
Carlos Ghosn, is surprised, according to his spokesman, that France has issued an international arrest warrant for him. Prosecutors have issued an arrest warrant for him and four other people in connection with “potentially improper payments.”
In 2018, he was arrested on financial mismanagements’ for allegedly underreporting his wage package for the five years prior to 2015. He categorically denied any wrongdoing.
He previously talked about his daring escape from Japan in 2019, which included disguising himself to travel unobserved through Tokyo’s streets, hiding in a massive music equipment box, and fleeing to Lebanon while facing charges. A French investigating magistrate has issued five international arrest warrants against him and four individuals linked to an Oman vehicle wholesaler.
The arrest warrant issued by the prosecutor’s office in the Paris area of Nanterre, according to his lawyer, Jean Tamalet of King & Spalding, was part of a long-running investigation.
