“#Carlos Ghosn gets $6M bill as Nissan-Mitsubishi case backfires<\/strong>”

Fugitive former car executive Carlos Ghosn suffered a setback on Thursday when a Dutch court ordered him to repay 5 million euros ($6.1 million) in wages to\u00a0Nissan\u00a0and\u00a0Mitsubishi\u00a0in a case he had brought.<\/p>\n

The case, one of a series<\/a> of legal battles involving one of the best known figures in the auto industry, centers around the Dutch-registered joint venture\u00a0Nissan-Mitsubishi\u00a0BV (NMBV), where Ghosn was ousted as chairman in 2019.<\/p>\n

Ghosn claimed the Japanese companies violated Dutch labor laws when they dismissed him and had demanded compensation of 15 million euros for missed wages and severance payments.<\/p>\n

But the district court in Amsterdam sided with the car companies, stating that Ghosn did not have a valid employment agreement with the joint venture, as it lacked the required consent of the boards of\u00a0Nissan\u00a0and\u00a0Mitsubishi.<\/p>\n

Ghosn was therefore ordered to pay back the 5 million euros in net payments he received from the Amsterdam-based joint venture between April and November 2018.<\/p>\n

A spokesperson for Ghosn said the former chairman of the\u00a0Nissan-Mitsubishi-Renault alliance would app<\/a>eal the verdict so that the testimony of witnesses who would support his case could be heard.<\/p>\n

Both\u00a0Nissan\u00a0and\u00a0Mitsubishi\u00a0said they were glad that their allegations were supported by the court.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are pleased that the court has dismissed Carlos Ghosn\u2019s unfounded claims against NMBV and ordered Mr Ghosn to repay the significant sums he appropriated unlawfully,\u201d\u00a0Nissan\u00a0said in a statement.<\/p>\n

The court found that Ghosn had wrongfully determined his own salary and sign-on bonus at NMBV, and that the board member who had signed his employment contract at the joint venture on behalf of the car companies did not have the power to do so.<\/p>\n

Ghosn, who has repeatedly denied wrongdoing, was chairman of both\u00a0Nissan\u00a0and\u00a0Mitsubishi\u00a0and chief executive of Renault when he was arrested in Japan in 2018 on charges of underreporting his salary and using company funds for personal purposes.<\/p>\n

He fled to Lebanon in December 2019 hidden in carry-on luggage on a private jet that flew out of Kansai Airport, and has remained in that country since.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
