TOKYO—Japanese prosecutors indicted Carlos Ghosn on April 22 on another charge of aggravated breach of trust, a Tokyo court said, the fourth charge against the former Nissan Motor Co. Ltd. chairman, which his lawyers met immediately with a bail request.

The charge came on the day Ghosn’s latest detention period was set to expire. Ghosn had been out on bail when authorities arrested him for a fourth time on April 4 on suspicion he enriched himself at a cost of $5 million to the automaker.
