Ghosn case trial

The Ghosn case involves Carlos Ghosn, a former auto industry executive, who was arrested in Japan in 2018 on charges of financial misconduct, including underreporting income and misusing company assets. Ghosn claimed the charges were part of a Nissan internal power struggle. His trial focused on these allegations, with debates over Japan’s legal system and corporate governance. In 2019, Ghosn clandestinely fled Japan to Lebanon, claiming he was unjustly targeted. The case highlights complexities around multinational corporate leadership, legal practices, and issues of justice, and remains a significant example of corporate scandal and legal controversy.
