"Nissan Shareholders Demand Return of Fugitive Ex-Chairman Carlos Ghosn, But He Says It Won't Happen. Disgruntled shareholders of Nissan made a surprising call at the company's annual meeting on June 23, urging the return of Carlos Ghosn, the ousted chairman who fled Japan in 2018 to avoid arrest. Ghosn, who was once hailed as a hero for turning around the struggling automaker, has been living in exile ever since. However, in a statement, Ghosn dismissed the possibility of his comeback, citing insurmountable legal hurdles and a lack of support from Nissan's management. The demand from shareholders highlights the ongoing divisions within the company, as Ghosn's loyal supporters continue to push for his reinstatement."
