Moreover, the Ministry of Justice and the Supreme Court of Japan have issued a request for opinions and are expected to develop the device together with private companies.

In 2020, there were reports that Carlos Ghosn, the former head of the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi alliance, hid in a 182 cm special double bass box during bail, fled Japan, and then transferred to fly to Beirut, the capital of Lebanon.

The key to Ghosn’s successful escape back to Lebanon was that he did not need to wear electronic monitoring equipment while on bail. According to Kyodo News, Japan is striving to enable GPS devices to prevent bail persons from escaping as soon as 2026.
