According to the Paris prosecutor’s office, there is currently no new information regarding Pavel Durov, and the investigation is still ongoing. However, during the court proceedings, Durov’s lawyers have submitted various motions and appeals. Additionally, requests concerning constitutional compliance and preliminary rulings have been sent to the European Union Court of Justice, indicating that the matter is also being examined within the framework of European law.
Durov’s court hearing lasted more than nine hours. According to RIA Novosti, the session took about ten hours, marking it as a lengthy and detailed interrogation.
It is worth noting that about a month ago, the Paris court allowed Pavel Durov to stay consecutively for up to 14 days in Dubai. This ruling came into effect on July 10 and means that Durov only needs to appear in Paris twice a month. This decision has somewhat eased his work schedule and personal life.
Pavel Durov gave a detailed interview to the French magazine Le Point, where he discussed the ongoing court pressure and the challenges he faces.
The trial is still ongoing, and the outcome remains uncertain. The verdict could have significant implications for Telegram’s future and its operations on the international stage. For this reason, Pavel Durov’s case is being closely watched worldwide.
