Telegram founder Pavel Durov was detained at Paris airport on multiple illegal charges involving the platform.
According to reports, Telegram founder Pavel Durov recently encountered legal troubles in France. He was detained at an airport in Paris on Saturday due to alleged violations related to the instant messaging app he founded. Local judicial authorities have decided to extend Durov's detention.
Investigators have made a wide range of allegations against the platform, covering fraud, drug trafficking, organized crime, the dissemination of terrorism-related information, and cyberbullying. Under French law, Durov could face up to 96 hours of detention. At the end of this period, a judge will assess whether there is sufficient evidence to formally charge him or to grant him release.
In response to this situation, Telegram's official team quickly made a statement. The company emphasized that their operations fully comply with relevant EU regulations. At the same time, they stated that Durov himself "acts with integrity" and expressed hope that this incident can be resolved properly and promptly.
This event has sparked widespread discussion about the boundaries of responsibility for social media platforms. With the increasing prevalence of online communication tools, finding a balance between protecting user privacy and preventing illegal activities has become a common challenge faced by regulatory agencies in various countries.
