The issue over excess pay first came to light after Greg Kelly, a former senior executive who was arrested along with Ghosn in November, accused Saikawa in a magazine interview of improperly receiving compensation. Nissan doesn't consider the excess payment to have violated any laws, and Saikawa has denied he ordered the payments, saying the matter was mishandled by staff.
Like Saikawa now, some of the allegations against Ghosn related to pay. The former chairman is currently out on bail, due to face trial in Tokyo next year on charges he failed to disclose compensation from Nissan, passed on trading losses to the carmaker and redirected company money into his own accounts. Ghosn denies all the allegations.Loading
The deterioration in relations between Nissan and Renault since Ghosn's arrest and an aborted merger with Fiat Chrysler also added to pressure on Saikawa. Long-held tensions between the two carmakers over control of their alliance broke into the open after Ghosn was arrested, and worsened when Renault's new chairman, Jean-Dominique Senard, pursued the Fiat deal without telling the Japanese company.
