Ghosn defends travel bans too What is the overseas reaction? Dec 31, 18:59
Former Chairman Carlos Ghosn of Nissan Motor Co., Ltd., has revealed that he has already left Japan despite being banned from traveling abroad. Experts say that this could have a very serious impact on the Japanese judicial system. In addition, overseas media have stated that "the judicial system in Japan is being severely looked at."
Former prosecutor: "Very serious impact on Japanese justice system"
Former prosecutor Attorney Yasuyuki Takai said, "In this case, the court relied on bail because the lawyers insisted that they present extremely stringent conditions of bail and would have them defended by Ghosn. Confidence was betrayed and the large bail did not help prevent escape, and it is now known all over the world that Ghosn left the country after passing through the Japanese judicial system, and I wonder if Japan's judicial system is that much. It is highly probable that this will trigger a second or third escape, which could have a very serious impact on the Japanese judicial system. " .
He added that the number of cases in which courts have granted bail recently has increased. "This issue raises a very serious issue whether it is possible to continue bail easing. The legal system and the legislative body should immediately consider such a legal system and mechanism, and suspend the flow of bail easing until the direction becomes clear. "
Regarding the effect on the trial in the future, "If you do not return from Lebanon as it is, the truth of the case will be in darkness without the opening of the trial of Ghosn, and it may be" What is justice for? " It is a very serious matter, and the government should negotiate a quick return to Japan using diplomatic channels. "

"The Japanese judicial system has been highlighted both by the 108-day detention in Tokyo detention center and by the conditions of bail, which banned contact with his wife," reported the French economy newspaper Resezec.
"If Ghosn did not return to Japan, the proceedings would be confused and only Nissan and Kelly would be brought to justice," said the British Financial Times.
"Leading Ghosn will soon be holding a press conference and attacking Japan, which has charged him," Le Monde, a leading French newspaper, said. She was watched by lawyers and others, but not tough, and her daughters regularly visited Ghosn's former president. "
