Nigeria's prison system exposed to scandal: Ignoring human rights, Binance executives seriously ill and difficult to get treatment
The Nigerian Correctional Service was recently exposed to have ignored human rights and basic medical standards and refused to send Binance executive Tigran Gambaryan, who suffered from malaria and severe throat infection, to the hospital for treatment. Despite the court's clear instructions for him to receive treatment, the authorities turned a deaf ear and kept Gambaryan in the prison clinic with poor conditions.
Gambaryan's wife Yuki was shocked and frustrated by this, and she was worried that her husband's condition was getting worse. Yuki said bluntly: "I can't understand why the authorities are so indifferent and let a seriously ill person not get the treatment he deserves." Just last Thursday, Gambaryan fainted in court on the second day of his trial in Abuja, the capital of Nigeria, on charges of money laundering. This incident further aggravated public attention to the matter.
This incident not only reveals the humanitarian crisis in Nigeria's prison system, but also raises questions about the fairness of the country's judicial system. In today's deepening globalization, Nigeria's move has undoubtedly caused serious doubts in the international community about its ability to protect the rule of law and human rights. We hope that the relevant authorities can intervene as soon as possible to ensure that Gambaryan can receive timely and effective treatment, and conduct a thorough investigation into the matter to give the public justice.
