Carlos Ghosn walked out of a Tokyo detention center after winning release on bail for second time, giving the deposed auto titan a chance to prepare his defense against charges of funneling millions of dollars from Nissan Motor Co. through an intermediary for his own purposes.
A court set Ghosn’s 500 million yen ($4.5 million) bond on Thursday with three conditions: that he live at a registered domestic address, that he not leave the country, and that he adhere to requirements meant to prevent the destruction of any evidence related to the case and other conditions. He’s also not allowed to see his wife, Carole, without court approval, his lawyers said.
