A group of 18 state attorneys general recently urged President Joe Biden to take action for the release of Tigran Gambaryan, a Binance executive detained in Nigeria since February 2024.

Gambaryan, a former U.S. federal agent, has reportedly faced deteriorating health, including a bout of malaria.

U.S. diplomats and officials, including Secretary of State Antony Blinken, have been in talks with Nigerian authorities, pressing for his release on humanitarian grounds due to his lack of medical care.

The U.S. has raised concerns about the legality of his detention and has called for swift action to secure his return, emphasizing the risks posed to his health.

His wife and supporters have also been vocal, urging the government to take more decisive measure
