Ghosn fled Japan on Sunday evening local time with the help of a private security company, Reuters reported, ultimately arriving in Lebanon.
Carlos Ghosn's family did not help him escape from Japan to Lebanon, the former head of the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi alliance said through a representative. Ghosn's statement followed a report on Thursday from The Wall Street Journal, citing sources familiar the matter, that his wife had been involved in the operation.
Ghosn had been awaiting trial in Japan after he was charged with underreporting his income at Nissan and using company money for personal gain. He has denied those allegations.
