The Nigerian government has dropped money laundering charges against jailed Binance executive and former U.S. Federal agent Tigran Gambaryan. The Binance executive’s lawyer said the charges were dropped after the court determined that Gambaryan was merely an employee and could not be prosecuted for crimes allegedly committed by his employer. This decision follows months of diplomatic efforts between the Nigerian and US governments. Gambaryan was arrested in April and held in detention. The money laundering case against Gambaryan ended abruptly with the withdrawal of charges, likely due to diplomatic pressure and concerns about his health.
