Shinz Abe: Trial Conditions and Beirut-Born Wife

shinz abe: His Beirut-born wife told the BBC in an interview she hoped the US president would raise her husband's treatment with Japan's prime minister, Shinz Abe, at a G20 world leaders summit in Tokyo later this month, according to The Guardian. Carole Ghosn said I'd like President Trump to speak to Prime Minister Abe about fair trial conditions, to let me speak to my husband and also to respect his presumption of innocence until proven guilty. Ghosn, once one of the most powerful figures in the global car industry, is awaiting trial in Japan over allegations he under-reported his salary and transferred personal investment losses to Nissan. Ghosn, who has French, Brazilian and Lebanese nationality, was first arrested in November and later released before being rearrested several times over new allegations. Prosecutors seized Carole Ghosn's Lebanese passport during a raid of the couple's Tokyo apartment in early April but failed to find her US one, she said. He has also been accused of causing Nissan 5m 4m in losses by channelling cash from a discretionary company fund into a firm run by his wife, which was used to buy a luxury yacht.
