French investigators question fugitive auto titan Carlos Ghosn in Beirut

French investigating judges questioned the high-flying auto executive-turned-international fugitive Carlos Ghosn for several hours in Beirut on Monday.

Ghosn, who simultaneously led three automakers as part of the Nissan-Renault-Mitsubishi alliance, has been fighting multiple probes since fleeing Japan in late 2019 in a daring escape that allegedly involved an ex-special forces soldier who helped Ghosn hide in a music equipment box. Ghosn hopes to clear his name in the multiple legal challenges against him in France, his legal team told reporters Monday.
