he was a true legend in the car business hailed worldwide as a visionary executive and credited with turning the sun into an industry powerhouse that was until himself it had cost charge with financial crunch two months on he's finally had his first day in court. cameras ready they were waiting but carlos never had a chance to make his case to the media the police delivered him to the talk your district court handcuffed and with a rope around his waist. was described as thin he is said to have lost twenty pounds over his last two months in prison the charges tax avoidance and under reporting his salary documents prepared for investors. and you knew mr gowan concluded his statement saying he is innocent and there was no evidence or grounds but his been wrongly accused and detained him and thought he must. industry

sources have long speculated whether the charges against poland were real or whether there was foul play gone has forged an alliance between french carmaker north and japanese competitors nissan and mitsubishi for years he has been criticized for giving it one or too much power within the group some in the industry say the future of the company is at stake. and yes there are three possibilities for the future of the alliance there's the status quo but that seems difficult to envision today they might go further into the alliance with an outright merger or takeover of one of the two companies all will see a rebalancing but today who can say what will happen perhaps we have reached the limits of this alliance as it was conceived at the beginning that. for now carlos gone is out at both japanese automakers he is still chief executive of where no. michael penn works for the shin gets

a news agency in tokyo and was at the press conference held by guns lawyers following the core proceedings michael what's god had to say for himself. well he was only given about ten minutes to say anything for himself and that was done in the court itself so as your report said not in public to direct the journalist sort of the oral but what he said was to say that what he did it acted on really legally and done nothing wrong and that he was looking forward to proving this to the court and to the world sensually of the entire case against him one fall flat or once seeing him in the light of the facts and evidence so how serious are the accusations we are talking about a huge amount of money but he's said to have mismanaged. well that's right so the crimes of their of them sorts of things that can put

a person in jail for thirty years so obviously the first accusation when she was arrested for was for supposedly under reporting was income. to stock exchange and therefore sort of. a stock holders we later learned that it wasn't actually money that he received but it was money which according to the prosecutor it's being fully arranged to give to him self after he retired from his positions chairman and then after that there were additional charges about how he might have used the lease on to sort of cover himself out of the two thousand and eight financial crisis by putting them sort of to make them liable for some of his personal losses but this issue was also addressed quite clearly by as lawyers

saying that part of the agreement which go away was that any losses that were incurred from that keep your arrangement nice somewhat of that won't bore none of them so a court imposed lawyers there was no real case there either michael someone reporting on this case what do you think is going on it sounds very fishy. yeah that's right i think the least among the no one journalists covering this all of our sort of alarm bells are going off our heads because this doesn't there's something about this case doesn't seem right it's not the way the corporates cases and you can normally handle so for example in a company find some sort of wrongdoing by its chairman or an executive normally the way this would be dealt with and go to that person and say oh well you need to fix the situation has to be done as a company in this case what happened is that the court the other executive slowly

everything to the prosecutors and they ambushed him wasn't arrested never giving him a chance to them himself and it was just very very strange behavior all around he seemed like something that was done more for political reasons inside the company that. owns mr stone so the ultimate case whether he's guilty my pain doctor does seem to be another agenda thank you very much for joining us from the scene gets news agency and. talking about auto executives and cars flying cars have to take to the skies about cities yes but a heap of companies a building of the regulators are going to be the biggest hurdle for them who knows how long that will take but in the meantime the old is a coming in thick and fast for china's latest flying taxi precision technology which is fully autonomous. and it's all without

a pilot in sight the e h one eight four flying taxi the computer controlled drone has already completed several successful test flights including some in dubai it automatically avoids obstacles and it's electric motor can power flights of up to thirty minutes under jiang is one of the hugs enthusiastic visionaries he wants to see a sky full of drones all controlled by artificial intelligence says the human air traffic controllers wouldn't be able to deal with such high traffic volumes what movie that a huge ship couldn't hear from its imagine a normal day in the future when you fly to work by drone there's no traffic on the way to work you order breakfast it's also delivered by drone and then of course you send your post the same way fossil hold until you know where in the punish the. startup is based in the southern chinese city of quango it's working on a number of different uses for autonomous drones for medical supplies transport to

traffic surveillance and even fire fighting. this air show by e. hong features more than a thousand drones flying together all controlled by just one computer they don't collide that's a promising degree of coordination for those concerned about taxi drones that will carry real people. another focus is food delivery at this restaurant an employee takes an order of sushi to the landing pad outside that's right the landing pad a colleague loads it on to a drone and quickly checks the weather if everything is in order the drone can take off. and then fly two kilometers to the next landing point. that all those are just the biggest difference is the speed of delivery normally an order within our delivery area takes around thirty to forty minutes to arrive this but in this case we need just ten to fifteen minutes ago. several housing complexes are directly

linked to the delivery service when the sushi drone lands a courier takes the food to the customer's apartment. around thirty such orders come in each day. flying taxis could also soon be part of daily life they cost around thirty thousand dollars each and the company has had some initial orders including from europe the hong hopes that by the next five to ten years it's each one eight four will be a completely normal way to get around. the consumer electronics show kicks off today with self driving rolling also walking it's all there in las vegas and as it's been the trend in recent years a growing number of traditionally non take companies have set up shop at c.s. trying to give their product line a digital make over. i catching self driving cars connected to the driver's home devices one of the trends last week that she went on for b.m.w.
