Now his health is in a shockingly bad condition and getting worse by the day,\u201d Yuki said in an emotional appeal to the Nigerian government. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She continued, \u201cThe herniated disc in his back has worsened to the point where it might leave permanent damage and affect his ability to walk. My once fit and healthy husband, who loves working out, is now wheelchair-bound due to a treatable condition that has not been properly addressed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Lack of Medical Care<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Gambaryan\u2019s situation has been worsened by the lack of adequate medical care available to him in prison.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> He is now taking blood thinners to prevent blood clots due to his prolonged bedridden state, and the prison is holding his medical records, further complicating his access to necessary care. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Previously, Gambaryan contracted malaria while in Nigerian detention and even collapsed in court during a hearing, underscoring the severity of his condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yuki\u2019s heartfelt plea also highlights the impact of Tigran\u2019s detention on their family, especially their two young children. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI recently found our five-year-old son crying on the floor of our living room. \u2018I miss my daddy\u2019 was all he said. He cannot understand why his father has been gone for so long. I had no idea how to comfort him. It was simply devastating,\u201d she shared. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yuki added, \u201cOur ten-year-old daughter is trying her best to be strong in this traumatic situation we find ourselves in. Her resilience makes me proud and sad at the same time because this is not anything a child should endure.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Gambaryans, who live in Georgia, USA, last saw Tigran on February 24, just days before his detention. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He had been invited to Nigeria by the authorities for a meeting in Abuja, but the reasons for his prolonged detention remain unclear. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Nigerian court went on holiday on July 16, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/coinscreed.com\/staging\/nigerian-judge-to-rule-on-binance-tax-case-in-october.html\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"84059\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">next hearing<\/a> in Gambaryan\u2019s case has been adjourned to October 11. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the adjournment, his detention conditions have significantly worsened, raising serious concerns about his safety and well-being.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Binance exec Tigran Gambaryan&#8217;s family requested the Nigerian government to release him as his health deteriorated while being held without legal access.
