A Nigerian court has denied bail to Tigran Gambaryan, a Binance executive, who is facing significant health issues, including a severe spinal injury. The court's decision has caused public outcry.
Judge Emeka Nwite pronounced that Gambaryan would continue his detention in Kuje prison in Abuja, unless his health condition arose to a level that might threaten others' safety, accompanied by the unavailability of quarantine facilities.
This ruling took place despite a bail plea, which highlighted Gambaryan's critical health situation, suggesting his immediate need for specialized medical care.
The controversial decision has intensified discussions about the judicial system’s handling of cases when health emergencies are involved, especially regarding individuals with severe medical conditions detained in custody.
