The Federal Government and the International Criminal Police Organisation have commenced the process of extraditing a Binance chief, Nadeem Anjarwalla, who escaped from detention on March TWENTY TWO.
Security agencies had in February arrested Anjarwalla and Tigran Gambaryan, two executives of the crypto-currency firm, Binance Holdings Limited, over alleged money laundering.
They were detained in ‘a safe house’ in Abuja on the order of the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu.
Among other charges, the firm and the two executives were arraigned for THIRTY FIVE BILLION DOLLARS money laundering at the Federal High Court, Abuja.
But on Friday, March 22, Anjarwalla escaped from detention and left the country using a Kenyan passport.
