Yuki Gambaryan, the wife of the detained Binance Holdings Limited executive, Tigran Gambaryan, has accused the Tinubu-led Federal government of keeping her husband in prison custody for over two months.

Gambaryan and another company executive, Nadeem Anjarwalla, were detained on February 26 following an investigation into Binance’s activities in Nigeria.

Speaking at Tuesday’s House Foreign Affairs Committee roundtable on Americans detained abroad, Yuki, represented by her congressman, Rich McCormick, said her husband has spent 65 days in custody.

Yuki told the US Parliament that the Nigerian Government kept her husband, Tigran Gambaryan, in Kuje prison, a place that has held militants and Boko Haram members.

Gambaryan’s wife stated that although she couldn’t speak on behalf of the company, she stressed that the charges against her husband were completely unfounded.

She said, “My husband and the father of our two young children, Tigrin, has been in Nigerian custody for 65 days, the longest two months of our lives. On February 25, he landed in Abuja at the Nigerian Government’s request for a financial compliance policy. This is what Tigran does. He helps countries navigate the notoriously prickly finance, crime, and compliance world.

“He spends his days investigating and pursuing criminal activity on Binance, his employer’s cryptocurrency platform. However, 24 hours after his arrival, he was arrested and detained without charge or explanation.

“Today, my husband sits in the notorious Kuje prison, a place that has held Militants from Islamic State and Boko Haram.

“Ironically, Tigran spent more than a decade as a special agent for the United States General Revolution Revenue Service, investigating issues of national security, terrorist financing, identity theft, distribution of tile pornography, tax evasion and more.”
