Binance exec’s mother pleads with US gov’t to secure his release
Detained in Nigeria for more than six months and with reported deteriorating health, Tigran Gambaryan likely won’t return to court until Oct. 9.
The mother of Tigran Gambaryan, a Binance executive detained in Nigeria since February, has been calling on the United States government to end her son’s detention in the country.
In a Sept. 18 interview from California news outlet KMPH Fox 26, 75-year-old Knarik Gambaryan urged US authorities to take action to secure Tigran’s release from Nigeria, claiming that he had been “detained wrongfully” and citing his deteriorating health. On Sept. 3, a video emerged through social media appearing to show the Binance executive’s physical condition for the first time since being detained by authorities, leaving him barely able to walk to court.
“He’s just a regular US Citizen,” said Knarik Gambaryan. “The US government has to take care of its people. He’s not a criminal.”
