		</div><p>Japanese prosecutors have added a new allegation of breach of trust against Nissan’s former chairman Carlos Ghosn.</p>
<p>Ghosn, along with another executive Greg Kelly, was arrested on November 19 and charged with under-reporting his income by nearly 10 billion yen (£63 million).</p>
<p>The fresh allegations were filed a day after a court rejected prosecutors’ request for a longer detention of Ghosn and Kelly.</p>
<p>Their lawyers were hoping they could get them released on bail as early as Friday.</p>
<p>So far, the new allegation only applies to Ghosn and Kelly could still be bailed.</p>
<p>Kyodo News service and other Japanese media reported that prosecutors alleged that Ghosn caused Nissan a loss of 1.8 billion yen (£12.6 million) in 2008.</p>
<p>Prosecutors alleged that Ghosn put his personal investment loss during the Lehman crisis on to Nissan, according to Japanese reports.</p>
<p>Ghosn and Kelly are also facing allegations that they under-reported Ghosn’s pay by about five billion yen (£35 million) in 2011-2015, and another four billion yen (£28 million) for 2016-2018, for which their first 10-day detention was to expire on Thursday.</p>
<p>The maximum penalty for violating the financial law is up to 10 years in prison, a 10 million yen (£70,000) fine, or both.</p>
<p>The arrest of an industry icon has triggered international attention. Prosecutors have been criticised for separating the same allegation into two periods as a tactic to detain Ghosn and Kelly longer.</p>
<p>They say Ghosn and Kelly are flight risks. No trial date has been set.</p>
