Nadeem Anjarwalla, the British-Kenyan Binance Africa Regional Manager, has been located in Kenya after escaping from Nigeria in late March. Efforts are underway by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), INTERPOL, and the police forces of Nigeria and Kenya to extradite him to Nigeria. Mr. Anjarwalla faces charges in Nigeria over a $35.4 million money laundering case, which also implicates Binance and its American executive Tigran Gambaryan, who is Binance's Head of Financial Crime Compliance. Last week, Mr. Gambaryan pleaded not guilty to five counts of money laundering and was transferred to Kuje Correctional Centre, a prison facility that has, in the past, held inmates ranging from jihadists to politicians.
