Japan doesn’t believe former Nissan Chairman Carlos Ghosn is a victim, according to a survey conducted by Tokyo-based broadcaster Fuji News Network.

In the first poll since Ghosn fled to Lebanon, more than 90 percent of respondents said they weren’t convinced by Ghosn’s criticisms of Japan’s criminal justice system.

Only 4 percent of Japanese people found Ghosn convincing, FNN reported.

During his press conference Jan. 8, in Beirut, Ghosn claimed the Japanese justice system breached his human rights, and that he “lost hope for a fair trial.”

Japanese Justice Minister Mori Masako said the ex-CEO’s comments at the press conference were “off the mark.”

According to FNN, 61 percent of respondents in the poll approved of using GPS devices to prevent defendants from skipping bail. Ghosn wasn’t fitted with such a device at the time of his escape.

Ghosn has most recently been issued a travel ban from Lebanese prosecutors, following an interrogation relating to an Interpol-related red notice.
