Nadeem Anjarwalla, a key figure at Binance, in a dramatic turn of events, has reportedly absconded from lawful custody in Nigeria, intensifying the ongoing saga surrounding allegations of tax evasion and other offenses.

Sources close to the matter revealed to PREMIUM TIMES that Anjarwalla, aged 38, managed to flee on March 22nd from the Abuja guest house where he and his colleague were detained, under the guise of attending prayers during the Ramadan fast.

Despite stringent security measures, Anjarwalla, who holds British and Kenyan citizenship, allegedly exploited a window of opportunity to board a Middle Eastern airline and depart from Abuja.

The circumstances surrounding his escape have raised questions about lapses in security protocols, particularly regarding international travel, as Anjarwalla left behind his British passport in Nigerian custody.

Authorities are now scrambling to ascertain Anjarwalla’s whereabouts and apprehend him, amid suspicions that he may have used his Kenyan passport to flee the country.

Reports suggest that Anjarwalla and his colleague were detained in a “comfortable guest house” with certain privileges, including access to telephones, which may have facilitated his escape plot.

The shocking development comes amidst mounting legal challenges for Binance, with criminal charges filed against the executives and the crypto exchange platform itself.

The Nigerian government alleges tax irregularities and illegal operations on the platform, contributing to economic distortions and currency devaluation.
