Paris (AFP) — Former Nissan boss Carlos Ghosn will «vigorously» defend himself in a Japanese court this week after refusing to sign a confession in return for being released from custody, his son has told a French Sunday newspaper.
The auto tycoon who has been held since his shock arrest in November on allegations of financial misconduct is due to appear in a Japanese court on Tuesday to hear the reasons for his detention.
He will give his version of events for the first time, his son Anthony told the French weekly newspaper Le Journal du Dimanche (JDD).
The father-of-four has gone from heading a powerful international auto alliance to languishing in a Tokyo detention centre, where his stay has been repeatedly extended.
Anthony told the JDD that his father would be released if he signed a confession.
