Justice Emeka Nwite of the Federal High Court in Abuja has refused the fresh bail application of the detained Binance Holdings Executive, Tigran Gambaryan.
Recall Counsel to Gambaryan, Mark Mordi had previously argued that his client’s health was “perilous.” stating his client required surgery for a herniated disc and psychiatric care due to depression and anxiety.
In his ruling on the motion for bail on medical grounds, Justice Nwite rejected the request, noting that renowned Nigerian medical experts were already managing his health.
The Judge, however, ordered the Nigerian Correctional Service to refer Gambaryan to a standard hospital in Abuja for treatment for three days to two weeks under security supervision.
He subsequently adjourned the case to October 18, November 22 and 25, for the continuation of trial.
