CarlosGhosn's wife says she wasn't in the loop about his escape

"Carlos cannot plead guilty for things he did not do," Carole Ghosn said, adding that her husband was the"victim of an industrial plot and the war between Renault and Nissan."

Ghosn had been facing trial in Japan on charges of financial misconduct, which he denies, before fleeing the country in late December for Lebanon, where he was reunited with his second wife Carole. Ghosn appears to have left his residence in Tokyo, which was monitored by surveillance cameras under his bail conditions, alone. He reportedly later met up with two US citizens and boarded a bullet train to Osaka on December 29.

Airport security rules meant large items loaded onto private planes were exempt from screening - a loophole that appears to have allowed Ghosn to escape unnoticed.
