Nigerian prison authorities have denied Binance executive Tigran Gambaryan hospitalization despite a recent court order mandating his transfer to a medical facility due to health issues. Yuki Gambaryan, the executive's wife, has expressed deep concerns about her husband's well-being amidst this troubling development.

Hospitalization Order Disregarded

Following Tigran Gambaryan's medical emergency and subsequent fainting during his trial in Abuja, Nigeria, Justice Emeka Nwite had directed the Nigerian prison authorities to transfer him to Nizayime Hospital for medical care. However, recent reports reveal that the Correctional Service in Nigeria has failed to comply with the court's order, leading to Tigran being denied proper medical attention despite suffering from malaria and a severe throat infection.

Concerns Over Human Rights

Tigran's wife, Yuki Gambaryan, has raised serious questions about the authorities' respect for fundamental human rights, especially in ensuring the well-being of detainees. Despite the court's clear directive for Tigran's hospital admission, he continues to receive treatment within the confines of Kuje Prison, raising concerns about his health and the adherence to legal protocols.

Future Legal Proceedings

With the next court hearing scheduled for June 14, Tigran Gambaryan faces tax violation charges filed by Nigeria's Federal Inland Revenue Service. As Tigran's legal team and family express ongoing concerns for his health and safety, the situation highlights the challenges faced by individuals in legal disputes, especially when essential medical care is denied.

Advocacy for Release

Mark Mordi, Gambaryan's legal representative, has highlighted his client's health issues to the court, emphasizing the need for proper medical attention. Despite these concerns, Nigerian prison authorities have yet to provide the necessary medical aid to Tigran. Binance's CEO, Richard Teng, has also joined the call for the release of Tigran Gambaryan, underscoring the importance of upholding human rights and ensuring fair treatment for all individuals involved in legal proceedings.
