Renault says it needs more information on Ghosn allegations
|London (CNN Business)Renault has given CEO Carlos Ghosn’s pay arrangements a clean bill of health but has still not come to a conclusion about allegations of financial crime that led to his indictment in Japan.
Renault said in a statement that its board of directors has now been briefed on the investigation by alliance partner Nissan that led to Ghosn’s arrest on November 19. But the French carmaker has asked its lawyers to update the board again “promptly” after further assessing the information provided by Nissan.
The statement also noted that Renault still “does not have information concerning Carlos Ghosn’s defense.” Ghosn remains locked in a Tokyo jail.
