Binance CEO Richard Teng condemns Nigeria's "inhumane treatment" of jailed executives

Richard Teng, Binance's chief executive, publicly denounced the Nigerian government's "inhumane treatment" of the company's head of criminal compliance, Tigran Gambaryan, in response to a recently released video showing Gambaryan arriving at the courtroom on crutches, visibly struggling, and asking guards for a wheelchair. Despite his request, officers appear to have denied him access to assistive devices, forcing him to continue with only one cane. "This inhumane treatment of Tigland must stop," Teng said, calling for Gambalyan to be allowed to return home to receive necessary medical treatment and be reunited with his family.
