CNBC's Michelle Caruso-Cabrera reports from Beirut after her conversation with ousted Nissan executive Carlos Ghosn.

A Lebanese prosecutor imposed a travel ban on former Nissan boss Carlos Ghosn on Thursday, a judicial source said, after he was summoned over an Interpol warrant issued by Japan seeking his arrest on financial misconduct charges.

Ghosn, 65, fled Japan to Lebanon, his childhood home, last month as he was awaiting trial on charges of under-reporting earnings, breach of trust and misappropriation of company funds, all of which he denies.

The decision issued by the prosecutor, Judge Ghassan Ouiedat, also requires Ghosn to keep the authorities informed of his place of residence, the source said. Ghosn’s questioning took place at Beirut’s Justice Palace, the headquarters of the judiciary.

There was no immediate comment from the prosecutor’s office and Ghosn’s lawyer in Lebanon could not immediately be reached.
