On November 28th, according to Bloomberg, former Binance executive Amrita Srivastava filed a whistleblowing lawsuit in the UK, accusing a colleague of demanding bribes from clients to speed up the service process, and claiming that he was unjustly fired for exposing the incident. Srivastava said the colleague charged clients for "consulting services" while falsely claiming that he was not a Binance employee. Binance responded that the company had long been aware of the matter and launched an internal investigation. Srivastava was fired for poor performance, and the dismissal decision was made earlier than her report.
