Carlos Ghosn: Interpol red notice out for ex-Nissan boss

• “Ghosn, who was arrested in late 2018, had been awaiting trial in Tokyo on charges of financial misconduct — accusations he has consistently denied and which he claims were trumped-up as part of an attempt to remove him from his position as chairman of Nissan.”
• “For the past seven months he had been living in a large house — a former embassy building — in central Tokyo under strict bail conditions and what was thought to be the watertight scrutiny of Japanese prosecutors.”
• “Mr. Ghosn’s escape had been planned with the help of private security operatives since October, according to people familiar with the situation.”
