Details On Carlos Ghosn's Escape From New York Japan
|
God damn, this is a good story; it's adding some interesting and funny details about Ghosn hightailin' outta Dodge...
[NY Post] - Nissan’s former CEO fled house arrest in Japan in a wild Hollywood-worthy plot ‐ allegedly using a team of mercenaries posing as musicians to smuggle him out of the country in an instrument case, reports said.
Accused embezzler Carlos Ghosn then used a relay of private jets to flee all the way from Tokyo to his family’s heavily guarded pink mansion in Lebanon, a nation which does not have an extradition treaty with Japan.
"I am now in Lebanon and will no longer be held hostage by a rigged Japanese justice system,’’ the defiant former auto honcho said in a statement Tuesday.
"I have not fled justice. I have escaped injustice and political persecution.’’
The wealthy 65-year-old former auto honcho had been out on $14 million bail, confined to house arrest ‐ and under ’round-the-clock Japanese guard ‐ at his tony Tokyo apartment when he escaped Sunday.
In a bizarre scheme allegedly orchestrated by his wife in the US, a group of ex-special forces soldiers posing as musicians specializing in a Gregorian band and toting music equipment strolled past Japanese security guards and entered the pad, according to the Lebanese news channel MTV.
Ghosn, who stands at just under 5-foot-6, climbed into "one of the boxes intended for the transfer of musical instruments,’’ the news station said ‐ possibly a roughly 6-foot-tall double-base case.
