BlockBeats News, June 6th. According to Coindesk, Binance executive Tigran Gambaryan, who was previously kidnapped and illegally detained in Nigeria, has announced his formal resignation. He joined Binance in 2021 and had set up and managed a 100-person global investigations team comprising former prosecutors and federal investigators, handling thousands of law enforcement requests.
In 2024, Gambaryan was detained by the local government in Nigeria due to compliance issues with Binance, and was eventually released this year under pressure from the U.S., without being convicted. In his resignation statement, he mentioned that he will continue to focus on bridging the gap between technology, law enforcement, and compliance.
