STORYLINE:
Associated Press journalists have seen a man believed to be former Nissan Chairman Carlos Ghosn leave the Tokyo Detention Centre.
Ghosn was released on Wednesday after putting up 1 billion yen (8.9 million US dollars) in bail.
Surrounded by uniformed guards and wearing a face mask, hat, glasses and the clothing of a construction worker, he climbed into a silver van and left the facility without making any comments.
He was arrested in November and is charged with falsifying financial reports and breach of trust.
He'd been held at a detention centre in Tokyo for more than three months.
The former head of the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Motors alliance is charged with falsifying financial reports and breach of trust.
He's denied the charges.
Ghosn's lawyers have offered conditions for his release, such as a surveillance camera at the doorway, and a promise not to use the internet. He is allowed to make voice calls, but he cannot travel abroad.
His French lawyer cautioned that prosecutors still had leeway to file new charges.
