The detained Binance exec leaves Nigeria after all charges were dropped.
Nigeria's government has withdrawn the money laundering charges against Binance executive Tigran Gambaryan, local news outlet Punch reported first on Wednesday.
The Nigerian government has officially dropped all charges against Tigran Gambaryan, a Binance Holdings executive, who had been detained since February. On Oct. 23, the Nigerian Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) announced the case withdrawal at the Federal High Court in Abuja.
Binance has expressed disappointment over a Nigerian court’s decision to deny bail to its executive, Tigran Gambaryan. On Oct. 11, the High Court in Abuja rejected Gambaryan’s latest bail request, citing procedural issues.
Bitcoin briefly fell below $59,000 last night before rebounding to reclaim the critical $61,000 level in a rapid V-shaped recovery. Historical data indicates that similar swift recoveries on a 30-minute resolution have consistently led to either higher gains or sideways trading, with few instances of further declines.
The Binance executive has been detained in Nigeria since February.
During a recent AMA, Binance CEO Richard Teng addressed accusations of misusing Launchpool funds, discussed the HBO documentary on Bitcoin’s creator, and outlined the company’s efforts against crypto scams.
