The Astonishing Escape and Betrayal of Carlos Ghosn: A Tale of Intrigue and Injustice

Carlos Ghosn, the former automotive executive who made headlines for his escape from Japan in 2019, is now accused of stiffing the team that helped him flee.

However, the individuals involved in the escape claim that Ghosn has not paid them the agreed-upon $1 million for their assistance. A new documentary, "Wanted: The Escape of Carlos Ghosn," explores the daring escape and its aftermath.

Carlos Ghosn seeks $1B in lawsuit against Nissan over alleged defamation.

Former Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn says the $1 billion lawsuit he recently filed against Nissan and others is just the beginning of his fight. Ghosn led Japanese automaker Nissan for two decades before he was arrested in Japan in November 2018 on charges of breach of trust, misusing company assets for personal gains and violating securities laws by not fully disclosing his compensation. Ghosn fled Japan in December 2019 for Lebanon where he has lived since. Half of the money sought by the 69-year-old Ghosn is for damages, he said, while the other half is for compensation including salary, retirement funds and stock options.
