Lawyers for ex-Nissan boss Ghosn speak of “betrayal”  Ghosn fled to Lebanon while awaiting trial on financial misconduct charges.

Takashi Takano – who led Ghosn’s legal defense – said he was angry at Ghosn’s escape blamed Japan’s judicial system and said he understood Ghosn’s fear of not getting a fair trial.

Another of Ghosn’s lawyers, Junichiro Hironaka, also expressed his concerns:

“It wasn`’t clear when the trial would begin, and there was no prospect of a change in bail conditions.

Ghosn may have been suffering from severe emotional stress, because he had no idea when he could see his wife again.”
