The Nigerian government has located the executive who escaped from their custody in late March during the ongoing controversy with Binance in Kenya.
Based on community news, officials are initiating the extradition procedure and questioning the guards who were keeping the executive in detention.
Binance Exec’s Extradition “In Full Swing”
Based on a report in the local paper PUNCH, the authorities found out where Nadeem Anjarwalla was hiding over the weekend. After he managed to flee from detention, the Nigerian government located him in Kenya.
According to the report, the investigation unmasked the Binance executive and revealed where he was hiding. Insiders at the presidential office shared with the local paper that Anjarwalla hid himself as soon as he arrived in the country.
We’ve located him; he’s currently in Kenya. Collaborating with Kenyan officials, we’re making arrangements for his return to Nigeria.
The newspaper was given a confirmation of the details from another reliable source. This verification reinforced the efforts of Nigerian officials, along with Kenyan authorities and INTERPOL, in bringing the individual back to Nigeria to answer the accusations made against him.
The EFCC chairman, Ola Olukoyede, revealed that the anti-corruption agency was working together with Interpol, the FBI, and the governments of the UK, Northern Ireland, and Kenya on the extradition case.
The EFCC’s assumption of control over the Binance chiefs’ prosecution, according to Olukoyede, sends a clear message of the EFCC’s determination to curb distortions and disruptions in Nigeria’s forex market.
How Did Anjarwalla Escape?
Nadeem Anjarwalla and Tigran Gambaryan, top officials at Binance, were taken into custody by Nigerian authorities on February 26 in relation to the country’s ongoing investigation into the crypto exchange for tax evasion allegations. It has been announced that one of these detainees managed to evade Nigerian custody last month.
Anjarwalla, holding dual British and Kenyan nationality, escaped from the custody house on March 22. The assumption is that he manipulated his phone access to orchestrate his getaway from Abuja.)
The executive managed to obtain a Kenyan passport and departed Nigeria via a Middle Eastern airline after being led to a local mosque for religious observance. Yet, the means by which Anjarwalla acquired the necessary documents and eluded security remained unexplained.
According to the latest update, military investigators are currently interrogating the security personnel responsible for overseeing the executive’s safety. (A reliable security insider informed the local paper about this.)
The soldiers assigned to keep an eye on Anjarwalla have been arrested and are currently being questioned intensively by investigators from various security and intelligence organizations – the military, DSS, NIA, and the police. Every agency is involved since this situation pertains to national security matters.
Currently, the specifics about how Anjarwalla managed to escape and where he has been hiding have not been disclosed to the general public. In the interim, the other Binance executive who was apprehended is still in EFCC’s custody. Gambaryan’s trial is scheduled for April 19, after being delayed from its initial date following his first court hearing.
