Tigran Gambaryan, a high-ranking executive at Binance, has been detained in Nigeria, raising concerns about his health and well-being.
Gambaryan, who serves as Binance’s Global Head of Investigations, was taken into custody last week in connection with an ongoing investigation into the cryptocurrency exchange’s operations in the region. The detention has sparked alarm among colleagues and human rights advocates due to reported health issues that Gambaryan is facing.
Sources close to the situation indicate that Gambaryan, who is known for his role in leading investigations into cryptocurrency-related fraud and compliance, is experiencing significant health problems while in custody. There are calls from various quarters for his immediate medical attention and for transparency regarding his treatment conditions.
Binance has expressed deep concern over Gambaryan’s well-being and is actively seeking information about his current health status. The company has also urged Nigerian authorities to ensure that his rights are upheld during the legal proceedings.
The Nigerian government has yet to release detailed information about the charges against Gambaryan. However, the situation has drawn considerable attention from both local and international observers, who are monitoring the case closely.
Human rights organizations and legal experts have voiced their apprehensions about the detention conditions and are advocating for a fair and humane treatment of Gambaryan. The incident highlights ongoing tensions within the regulatory landscape of cryptocurrency operations in Nigeria.
As the case continues, Binance and its supporters are calling for a resolution that ensures Gambaryan’s health and rights are prioritized, while also addressing the legal issues at hand.
