In a statement issued shortly after midnight and translated into English and French, Japan’s justice minister shot back, repeating that Ghosn’s escape from his trial in itself “could constitute a crime”. Defending authorities’ jailing of Ghosn, Mori said that in Japan, a suspect can only be arrested with a warrant from the court upon review by a judge unlike in some countries where detention is possible without a warrant.
