Telegram CEO Pavel Durov was indicted by a French court on multiple charges, according to Bloomberg. Released under judicial supervision, Durov is required to remain in France, post a 5 million euro bail, and report to the police twice a week. His arrest follows a broad cybercrime investigation, with allegations that Telegram facilitated illegal activities such as money laundering. Despite his arrest, many in the crypto community and TON blockchain supporters have rallied in his defense. French President Emmanuel Macron emphasized that the arrest was part of a judicial process and not politically motivated. Source: The Block
