Tokyo prosecutors on Monday indicted two Americans accused of helping former Nissan boss Carlos Ghosn jump bail and make his audacious escape from Japan in 2019.

In a statement, prosecutors said Michael Taylor and his son Peter were being indicted on a charge of helping a criminal escape, over their alleged involvement in smuggling Ghosn to Lebanon, where he remains an international fugitive.
