The legal team of Nissan's former chairman Carlos Ghosn issued a statement Friday refuting the latest allegations by the Japanese automaker against the fugitive businessman.

Nissan Motor Co. on Thursday filed a new set of allegations to the Tokyo Stock Exchange against Ghosn, who skipped bail and fled to Lebanon earlier this month, saying he could not get a fair trial in Japan.

The lawyers said that Nissan's complaints were biased and that it never questioned Ghosn about them.

They also said Nissan never tried to interview Ghosn or Greg Kelly, another former executive facing charges of financial misconduct, or bothered to solicit their knowledge of the facts."
