Pavel Durov, the founder of Telegram, was arrested today at around 8 p.m. after stepping off his private jet at Le Bourget airport near Paris. Durov was accompanied by a woman and a bodyguard. He had flown to France from Azerbaijan.

According to the TF-1 television channel, Durov had been placed on a federal wanted list, with a French arrest warrant issued by the National Directorate of the Judicial Police following a preliminary investigation. The warrant was only valid while Durov was on French territory.

A gendarmerie investigator commented to TF1/LCI, “Pavel Durov will end up in a detention center, that’s for sure!” Sources close to the case allege that Durov allowed numerous offenses and crimes to occur on Telegram, without taking any steps for moderation or cooperation. French authorities suspect him of being connected to “drug trafficking, crimes against children, and fraud” due to Telegram’s lack of moderation and legal cooperation.
