According to a recent article by TechCabal, there have been discussions between the Nigerian and Kenyan governments regarding the extradition of Nadeem Anjarwalla, a Binance executive who managed to flee from custody in Nigeria. The report states that the Nigerian government has formally requested Kenya’s assistance in apprehending Anjarwalla.
The report states that an unidentified detective from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) admitted receiving extradition demands, yet mentioned that Kenya had not responded. He explained that the extradition procedure is a two-sided affair and will require cooperation from both parties.
The detective cautioned, “It’s not as simple as strolling in to make an arrest at their request. There’s a proper procedure to follow. Moreover, the Anjarwallas hold significant influence and are supported by influential figures.”
Possible Red Notice For the Binance Executive?
According to the report, the detective requested anonymity due to the delicate nature of the case. The matter involves possible offenses he is accused of committing abroad, and there may be discrepancies regarding red notices or foreign arrest warrants. (Paraphrased version)
Law enforcement organizations exchange data with each other and via Interpol. However, their cooperation is limited by legal restrictions. Issuing an Interpol red notice or a foreign arrest warrant are distinct processes.
Possible Procedure for The Anjarwalla’s Extradition
The intricacies and legal implications of extradition procedures are frequently discussed to ensure compliance with both domestic and international laws. In order to extradite a Binance executive, a Nigerian judge would first need to issue an arrest warrant which will then be sent to Kenya’s chief prosecutor.
Following an arrest, obtaining the court’s approval for further proceedings can also be a lengthy process, potentially taking several months. Furthermore, according to the report, Anjarwalla is the son of Atiq Arjarwalla, a prominent business partner in one of East Africa’s largest firms.
Two Binance executives were taken into custody by Nigerian authorities, who accused the cryptocurrency exchange of enabling naira transactions in violation of regulations. Binance and the two executives have been formally charged with money laundering in Nigeria. Gambaryan reportedly entered a plea of not guilty.
At the same time, the cryptocurrency world rallies behind Gambaryan, urging for his swift freedom from detention.
