SAO PAOLO: Former Nissan Motor Co. Chairman Carlos Ghosn’s house was damaged in Tuesday’s massive explosion in the Lebanese capital of Beirut, a Brazilian newspaper reported.

Ghosn’s wife, Carole, said that while her family is safe, the family’s house was destroyed, according to the O Estado de S. Paulo newspaper.

The house is located in an exclusive residential district some 5 kilometers from the site of the explosion, according to the paper.

Carlos Ghosn fled to Lebanon late last year while on bail in Japan awaiting trial on charges of financial misconduct. Carole also faces perjury allegations in Japan.
