Out on bail, the former Nissan CEO tweets that he’s ‘getting ready to tell the truth about what’s happening’
The tweet has sparked questions over his bail conditions — which were thought to include a ban on internet accessFormer Nissan Motor Chairman Carlos Ghosn sits inside the car as he leaves his lawyer's office after being released on bail from Tokyo Detention House, in Tokyo, Japan, on March 6, 2019.
If Tokyo prosecutors were to proceed, it would be the fourth criminal charge against the former high-flying automotive executive, who denies all allegations. Ghosn already faces three charges of financial misconduct over allegations he under-reported his compensation and sought to transfer personal losses to Nissan’s books.
The tweet sparked questions over his bail conditions — which was thought to include a ban on internet access — but his lead lawyer Junichiro Hironaka later insisted his client was within his rights. Asked about his use of Twitter, Hironaka told reporters camped outside his office: “We are not doing anything that violates the terms of his bail.
