【Telegram founder claims there has been no progress in his case in France and criticizes the French government.】 According to Golden Finance, Telegram founder Pavel Durov released the latest news regarding the progress of his case in France. He stated that it has been 'difficult' to find any evidence of wrongdoing in the criminal investigation against him. In a Telegram post on Sunday, Durov referred to his arrest by French authorities in August 2024 as 'unprecedented,' adding that holding a tech company executive accountable for the actions of independent users is 'legally and logically absurd.' Durov also said: 'A year later, it is still difficult to find anything wrong with me and Telegram in this 'criminal investigation.' Our content moderation practices conform to industry standards, and Telegram has always responded to every legally binding request from France.' He continued, 'A year after this strange arrest, I still have to return to France every 14 days, and the appeal date is nowhere in sight.' He also warned that the French government has caused irreparable damage to France's image as a free country.
