Today, we witnessed images that caused concern in the cryptocurrency world. The issue is related to Binance executive Tigran Gambaryan, who has been detained in Nigeria since February. In the images taken while he was being brought to court, concerns arose about Gambaryan’s health. Binance CEO Richard Teng did not remain silent on the matter.
Public Reaction
The images of Binance executive Tigran Gambaryan, who is detained in Nigeria, caused a significant reaction in the international community. Binance CEO Richard Teng strongly criticized this situation. Teng shared Gambaryan’s images on X, emphasizing that Tigran’s human rights were being violated and that he should receive urgent medical assistance and be allowed to be with his family. This incident has also created significant tension in the cryptocurrency world.
Tigran Gambaryan, one of the key figures at Binance, is on the international agenda due to the inhumane treatment he faces in Nigeria. The emergence of images taken during his detention has deeply shaken both human rights advocates and the cryptocurrency community. On one hand, the outrage caused by these images, and on the other hand, the statements of Binance CEO Richard Teng have made the situation even more critical.
Health Concerns
Tigran Gambaryan’s health condition has become alarming. As his detention period prolongs, Tigran’s physical and psychological health is deteriorating. Richard Teng harshly criticized this situation, demanding that Tigran receive the necessary medical intervention and be released as soon as possible.
Teng emphasized that Tigran should be able to be with his family and made an open call to the Nigerian government. Teng had previously written a lengthy blog post calling on U.S. officials for Gambaryan. However, no progress has been made on the issue so far.
In the images, Gambaryan is seen limping with crutches and even dragging his left foot as he goes to court. Following the release of these images and the call from Binance CEO Richard Teng, it remains to be seen whether there will be more public outcry. The main question is whether the U.S. will exert any pressure on Nigeria.
