US Lawmakers Urge Biden to Intervene in Detention of Binance Exec in Nigeria

Tigran Gambaryan, detained on charges of money laundering and tax evasion, faces deteriorating health in harsh prison conditions.

A bipartisan group of lawmakers has called for immediate action to secure Gambaryan's release.
Gambaryan was detained after traveling to Nigeria for discussions on Binance's compliance issues.
The charges against Gambaryan are seen as coercive tactics by the Nigerian government.
Gambaryan's health has worsened, with reports of malaria and inadequate medical care.
Comparisons are being drawn to the swift US response in similar past cases.
