Ousted Nissan chief Carlos Ghosn said in a new conference in Beirut that allegations against him were "untrue" and he should have never been arrested in the first place.

It is his first public appearance after having fled Japan to Lebanon last week. He was under house arrest and facing charges of financial misconduct in Japan.

Ghosn also attacked the Japanese judiciary system, saying the Japanese legal system contravened his human rights and that prison kept him in the "depth of deprivation."
