TOKYO -- Just before his expected release, Carlos Ghosn was arrested for a third time on Dec. 21 in a bid by prosecutors to extend his detention. The new allegations hold that the ousted chairman inflicted losses on Nissan Motor by passing on his personal losses, altering the dynamics of the case.
Unlike the previous two arrests for understating income, for which Nissan itself was also charged, the automaker would be a victim of Ghosn's actions in an aggravated breach of trust case.
