TOKYO—Nissan Motor Co. shareholders ousted Carlos Ghosn as a director on April 8, severing his last tie with the Japanese automaker he rescued from near-bankruptcy two decades ago and from which he is now accused of siphoning funds.
Days after Ghosn’s latest arrest in Tokyo, shareholders gathered for an extraordinary meeting, expressing bafflement and disquiet about growing allegations of financial misconduct laid out before them—while seeking more clarity on how Nissan plans to recover from the scandal.
