Telegram CEO’s arrest: Did messaging platform become a petri dish in India for financial frauds, exam scams, and more? | Mint

Telegram, a popular messaging app, is facing scrutiny in India for its alleged involvement in criminal activities. It has become a platform for distributing leaked exam papers, child pornography, stock price manipulation, and extortion. The CEO of Telegram, Pavel Durov, was recently detained in France for not adequately addressing these issues on the platform. The investigation into Durov involves allegations of illicit transactions, child pornography, fraud, and failure to cooperate with authorities. With 950 million users, Telegram's role in scams and fraud in India has raised concerns about content moderation and law enforcement challenges.
