A lawyer for former Nissan boss, Carlos Ghosn, says he feels betrayed by the Japanese justice system.

Ghosn fled Japan this week, claiming he was avoiding political persecution over allegations of financial misconduct.

A private jet firm says a rogue employee falsified records and arranged flights for Ghosn. The company says the employee acted alone.
