Japan court extends ousted Nissan chief's detention

A court in Japan has extended the detention of former Nissan head for another ten days till January 11. Carlos Ghosn, who has been re-arrested twice since his arrest on November 30, is facing allegations of forcing the Japanese automaker to shoulder personal losses of 16.8 million dollars back in October 2008. The decision came just a day before his 10-day detention was to expire and follows the release of Nissan's former executive Greg Kelly, who was initially arrested for under-reporting Ghosn's pay over a five-year period.
