Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - International Service: Durov was arrested at an airport on the outskirts of Paris in August last year and was then placed under official investigation and banned from leaving French territory.

According to a Reuters report, he said: "I would like to thank the investigating judges for allowing me to leave France, and also my lawyers and Telegram team for their tireless efforts to prove that Telegram has not only fulfilled its legal obligations for many years, but has gone beyond them in monitoring, cooperating with law enforcement and fighting crime."
