Crypto investor Evan Luthra has publicly shared the details of his kidnapping in Oxford, UK, for the first time. He stated that while he was inside a private vehicle, he was taken to a remote road, where five masked men forcibly broke in and assaulted him. The assailants used Face ID to unlock his mobile phone. Within approximately 30 minutes, the perpetrators transferred over $1.5 million worth of cryptocurrencies from his Binance account, about $600,000 worth of ETH from his Gate account, and looted a Richard Mille watch valued at roughly £450,000. Luthra noted that exchanges such as Binance and MEXC subsequently assisted in freezing and recovering a portion of the funds, with Binance returning about $370,000, bringing the total amount recovered to nearly $1 million. Currently, multiple suspects have been arrested, and the trial has been postponed to November 2027.
