		</div><p>A Japanese court has approved a request to keep Nissan’s former chairman Carlos Ghosn in detention for another 10 days.</p>
<p>Mr Ghosn, who led Nissan Motor Company for two decades and helped save the Japanese automaker from near bankruptcy, was arrested in November on suspicion of falsifying financial reports.</p>
<p>He also faces a breach of trust allegation, for which his detention had been approved previously.</p>
<p>The Tokyo District Court said in a statement that it had approved prosecutors’ request for a 10-day extension.</p>
<p>Mr Ghosn has been charged in the first set of allegations, about under-reporting his pay by about 5 billion yen (£34 million) in 2011-2015.</p>
<p>Those close to Mr Ghosn and his family say he is asserting his innocence as the alleged under-reported amount of money was never really decided or paid, and Nissan never suffered any monetary losses from the alleged breach of trust.</p>
<p>It is unclear when Mr Ghosn may be released on bail.</p>
<p>Tokyo prosecutors consider Mr Ghosn, a Brazilian-born Frenchman of Lebanese ancestry, a flight risk.</p>
<p>In Japan, formal charges can mean a suspect will get detained for months, sometimes until the trial starts, because of fears of tampered evidence.</p>
<p>Another Nissan executive, Greg Kelly, was arrested on suspicion of collaborating with Mr Ghosn on the under-reporting of income and was freed on Christmas Day on 70 million yen (£500,000) bail after more than a month of detention.</p>
<p>Mr Kelly said in a statement released through his lawyers he had suffered while in detention because of his neck ailment and hoped to get medical treatment.</p>
<p>He also said he was innocent and hoped to regain his reputation.</p>
<p><em>“I expect that the trial will start soon. I have not been involved in alleged false entry. I believe my innocence will be revealed in the trial,”</em> he said.</p>
