Former Nissan Motor Co. chairman Carlos Ghosn inserted himself into a legal battle that two men accused of smuggling him out of Tokyo are waging in the U.S. to avoid extradition to Japan.
Former Green Beret Michael Taylor and his son Peter could face “human rights abuses” at the hands of the Japanese government if they’re extradited, Ghosn said in a filing in Boston federal court Tuesday.
