Posted by Thandiubani on Tue 03rd Sep, 2024 - tori.ng

The incident happened after the embattled Binance executive was arraigned on Tuesday at the Federal High Court, Abuja.

 
Binance executive, Tigran Gambaryan has accused Nigerian government of maltreating him.
 
Gambaryan who is facing money laundering charges cried out in court.
 
He was seen in a viral video posted on Monday by SYMFONI on hand crutches lamenting that the Nigeria Correctional Service Staff abandoned him on the instruction of the government.

“This is Fuck Up, he was told not to help me. This is an instruction from the government. It is a show, I am an innocent person”, he said.
 
The development comes after the embattled Binance executive was arraigned on Tuesday at the Federal High Court, Abuja.
 
Mark Mordi, SAN, had on August 28 2024 filed for bail application for Gambaryan.
 
However, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, counsel, Ekene Iheanacho countered Gambaryan’s bail application on the ground that he is not having a serious health challenge.
 
“My Lord, I don’t want to go into detail about this issue. Ordinarily, the defendant had been living with this (disk) condition for the past 12 years before he came to Nigeria. It is not as if it is a new issue”, he said.
 
Earlier, in a statement to DAILY POST, Gambaryan’s Wife, Yuki said, “This situation is entirely unjust. My husband was unlawfully detained by the Nigerian government after being invited under pretenses for a meeting in their country”.
 
Recall that in April, Justice Emeka Nwite of the Federal High Court, Abuja, ordered that Gambaryan remain in Kuje prison pending his bail application determination.
 
In February two executives of the company, Tigran Gambaryan and Nadeem Anjarwalla (now at large), were arrested and detained by the Nigerian government on allegations of money laundering and terrorism charges.
