U.S. prosecutors on Tuesday said a former Green Beret and his son, wanted by Japan for helping former Nissan Motor Co boss Carlos Ghosn flee the country, were advancing a 'flawed' interpretation of Japanese law to fight their extradition.

BOSTON - U.S. prosecutors on Tuesday said a former Green Beret and his son, wanted by Japan for helping former Nissan Motor Co boss Carlos Ghosn flee the country, were advancing a “flawed” interpretation of Japanese law to fight their extradition.

Michael Taylor and his son, Peter Taylor, were arrested in Massachusetts last month at Japan’s request for allegedly smuggling Ghosn out of the country on Dec. 29, 2019, in a box while he was out on bail awaiting trial on financial charges. Lawyers for the Taylors in a motion last week asked a federal judge in Boston to quash the provisional warrants issued in May for their arrests, arguing that “bail jumping” is not a crime in Japan.

But U.S. prosecutors in a brief filed on Tuesday said it would be “unprecedented” for the extradition case at this junction to be tossed based on a “flawed interpretation of Japanese law and a mischaracterization of the facts.”
