Telegram founder Pavel Durov has left France, where a criminal case was opened against him. According to AFP, the entrepreneur was able to travel to Dubai with permission from a French court. This became possible after he was detained in late August 2024.
Charges of pornography distribution and fraud
Durov came under suspicion in connection with allegations regarding content moderation on the Telegram platform. As part of the investigation, the businessman is accused of distributing pornographic material, fraud, and other crimes. His detention caused widespread resonance, and the entrepreneur was later released under judicial supervision.
Travel restrictions during the investigation
After his release, Durov was banned from leaving France until the completion of the investigation. However, taking the circumstances into account, he was issued a special pass for a short-term trip to Dubai. The duration of his stay in the UAE was limited to several weeks.
