Tokyo court denies Carlos Ghosn bail again, leaving Renault chief to languish as prosecutors build case
Carlos Ghosn’s latest bail application was rejected Tuesday by the Tokyo District Court, extending his detention and helping prosecutors build their case against the fallen car titan who has already been behind bars for almost two months.
Ghosn’s lawyers submitted the bail application last week after the executive was indicted for a second count of financial misconduct accusations.
The rejection is a win for the prosecutors who want to keep questioning Ghosn as they continue to build their case ahead of an eventual trial. The ousted Nissan Motor Co. chairman has been indicted for understating his income by billions of yen and for breach of trust by acts including passing on trading losses to the carmaker.
The arrest of the high-flying executive on Nov. 19 at Tokyo’s Haneda airport has rocked the world’s biggest auto alliance, raising questions over whether the two-decade partnership between Nissan and French partner Renault SA will survive his downfall.
While Nissan dismissed Ghosn as chairman shortly after his arrest, Renault has retained him as chairman and chief executive officer, saying it needs evidence of his wrongdoing.
The time behind bars has already taken its toll on Ghosn. He appeared in public for the first time on Jan. 8 looking gray and gaunt, and was led into a courtroom handcuffed and with a rope tied around his waist. Ghosn’s wife, Carole, painted a glum picture of her husband’s state, saying she’s fearful for his health and that he’s been denied access to his family since his arrest.
It’s not uncommon in Japan for suspects to endure lengthy pretrial detentions. Suspects are often re-arrested on suspicion of new charges periodically to keep them in custody while prosecutors attempt to build a case, and bail is the exception more than the rule.
