Upon their arrival in Nigeria in February to discuss matters related to <a href="https://en.coin-turk.com/binance-ceo-responds-to-allegations-in-cryptocurrency-lawsuit/" data-wpel-link="internal" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Binance</a>, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, executives Tigran Gambaryan and Nadeem Anjarwalla were detained. Following their detention, they have filed a lawsuit against Nigerian officials, alleging the violation of their basic human rights. Both executives are seeking their release, the return of their passports, and a public apology.
<h2 style="text-align: justify" id="strong-two-separate-lawsuits-filed-strong">Two Separate Lawsuits Filed</h2>
According to local media reports, Gambaryan and Anjarwalla have filed two separate lawsuits at the Federal High Court in Abuja, naming National Security Advisor Nuhu Ribadu and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission as defendants. The plaintiffs are asking the court to order their release, the return of their passports, and a public apology.

The detention of Gambaryan and Anjarwalla followed accusations of tax evasion directed at them and Binance by Nigerian authorities earlier this month. The arrest of the Binance executives occurred after they were invited to discuss company-related matters with Nigerian officials. Furthermore, reports of Anjarwalla’s escape from the country last week add to the dramatic nature of the events.
It is known that the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Olayemi Cardoso, accuses Binance of contributing to the instability of the Nigerian naira against foreign currencies by enabling untraceable movements of billions of dollars worth of the currency.
<h2 style="text-align: justify" id="strong-case-adjourned-to-april-8-strong">Case Adjourned to April 8</h2>
According to local media reports, at the hearing on March 28, the Nigerian institutions named in the lawsuit were absent, and the case has been adjourned to April 8 while the legal battle between Binance executives and Nigerian officials continues. The case is a striking example of the challenges that cryptocurrency companies operating in regions with high regulatory scrutiny and developing legal frameworks may face.
Moreover, the lawsuit filed by Gambaryan and Anjarwalla against Nigerian officials sheds light on broader concerns regarding the protection of human rights within the context of cryptocurrency regulation. As the cryptocurrency sector continues to expand globally, issues related to regulatory compliance and legal disputes are becoming increasingly prominent. The outcome of this legal struggle will particularly influence how global cryptocurrency exchanges engage or fail to engage with regulators and governments worldwide.
