Nissan Motor Co. executive Greg Kelly was released from detention in Japan on Dec. 25 after being granted bail over the alleged underreporting of his boss Carlos Ghosn’s pay.

The late-night release of Kelly, who is American, followed the Tokyo District Court’s approval earlier in the day of a bail request filed last week by his Japanese lawyer.
