According to Foresight News, Telegram CEO Pavel Durov is currently facing legal proceedings in Paris. Under French law, Durov's stay in the city must not extend beyond 8:00 PM local time on August 29, 2023. By this deadline, he is required to appear before the Paris Judicial Court for a hearing with an investigative judge.

The judge will conduct further questioning to determine whether to press charges against Durov or to classify him as a key witness in the investigation and subsequently release him. The outcome of this legal process will be crucial in deciding Durov's legal standing and future actions in France.
