On August 25, according to the French newspaper Le Monde, Telegram CEO Pavel Durov was arrested accompanied by bodyguards and assistants. He arrived in Paris from Baku on a private jet and was expected to spend at least one night in Paris. The billionaire knew he was wanted in France, but decided to go to Paris. Pavel Durov had been naturalized in France in 2021 through a special procedure and currently holds dual French and Russian citizenship.
Pavel Durov and his brother Nikolaí launched Telegram in 2013, and Telegram is committed to protecting user privacy. Pavel Durov said in a rare interview in Dubai in April that he came up with the idea for encrypted messaging after coming under intense pressure from Russian authorities when he created the social network VK. He left Russia in 2014 and then tried to settle in Berlin, London, Singapore and San Francisco, eventually setting up Telegram's headquarters in Dubai.
