The process involves notifying all member countries to locate and apprehend Anjarwalla, ensuring he faces trial in Nigeria.
The Nigerian Central Bureau of Interpol has completed the necessary extradition paperwork for Binance Holdings executive Nadeem Anjarwalla, who is currently evading legal proceedings.
Garba Umar, head of the Nigerian NCB, detailed these developments on the local "Sunrise Daily" program, emphasizing the active coordination with multiple countries to execute a Red Notice for Anjarwalla's extradition.
Anjarwalla, along with colleague Tigran Gambaryan, faces charges of tax evasion and money laundering levied by the federal government. Following their arrest on February 28, Anjarwalla escaped custody on March 22. He fled from a guest house in Abuja during a permitted visit to a nearby mosque for Ramadan prayers.
Reports last week indicated Kenyan police had apprehended Anjarwalla; however, Umar could not confirm these details.
He reiterated that Anjarwalla was last spotted in Kenya, and extensive efforts have tracked his movements to ensure he does not elude justice.
"Rest assured, we located where he was, how he boarded, all information about him, and how he landed. We have done that to make sure that he doesn’t escape justice," Umar stated.
Umar clarified that the extradition process involves notifying all Interpol member countries, including Kenya, where Anjarwalla is believed to be hiding. It is both morally and legally imperative that any country harboring Anjarwalla apprehend him and notify Nigeria, facilitating his return to face trial, according to Umar.
The Nigeria NCB head assured that due to the robust international cooperation and the mechanisms in place, Anjarwalla will be apprehended wherever he might be.
"He may be in Kenya, he may be in hiding, he might have even left Kenya but because of the notices we have given, wherever he is, he will be smoked out," he affirmed.
