ATTENTION BREAKING NEWS❗❗
Pavel Durov was arrested in France.
Pavel Durov was detained at the airport in Paris as he exited his private jet, which he had arrived on from Azerbaijan; the French judicial police issued a search warrant - French TV channel TF1
Law enforcement believes Durov is involved in “drug trafficking, crimes against children and fraud” due to Telegram’s “lack of moderation and cooperation with law enforcement officials”; French search warrant against Durov “was only valid while he was in the country” — TF1
Durov, who received French citizenship in 2021, has been detained pending a court hearing where he will likely be charged with “a range of crimes: terrorism, drugs, fraud, money laundering, and crimes against the sexual integrity of children,” according to TF1.
"Pavel Durov will be arrested, that's for sure. He has allowed countless violations and crimes to be committed on his platform, without doing anything to moderate it or cooperate [with law enforcement]." - A TF1 source close to the investigation against Durov.
