A video of Tigran Gambaryan, the embattled Binance executive crying for help from an official of the Nigeria Correctional Service Staff has gone viral.
Gambaryan who is facing money laundering charges cried out that he is being maltreated by the government.
The Binance executive who is currently facing money laundering charges was seen dragging himself in hand crutches as he lamented the torture from the state. He was arraigned on Monday, September 2 at the Federal High Court, Abuja.
“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.
Meanwhile, 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”.
