Former Government Employees, Compliance Officers Rally for Detained Binance Executive

Former government employees and compliance officials in the crypto industry held a rally in front of the United Nations to show support for Tigran Gambaryan, Binance's head of financial crime compliance, who has been detained in Nigeria since February. Gambaryan is being tried on money laundering charges and is held in a prison known for holding terrorists and criminals. His health has deteriorated, and he has suffered from infections and a herniated disc. The US government only recently acknowledged his detention, and attendees at the rally expressed concerns about consumer protections and the integrity of markets.
