TOKYO: Japanese prosecutors on Thursday re-arrested Carlos Ghosn on fresh allegations of financial misconduct, as the former auto tycoon slammed an"outrageous and arbitrary" detention and vowed he would"not be broken."

Ghosn released a statement through his representatives attacking what he called the"outrageous and arbitrary" detention."Why arrest me except to try to break me? I will not be broken," said the former high-flying executive. He added his client had expected prosecutors would re-arrest him and had therefore prepared a video, without specifying the contents or exactly when it would be released.

The third, more complex, charge is that he attempted to transfer personal losses to Nissan and paid a Saudi contact who provided collateral from the company funds. A Nissan spokesman said the firm's own internal probe had uncovered"substantial evidence of blatantly unethical conduct" and that their focus was on"addressing weaknesses in governance that enabled this misconduct."Ghosn had maintained his silence since paying around US$9 million to win bail on Mar 6 when he walked out of his detention centre dressed in a workman's uniform in a bizarre attempt to evade the world's media.
