Russian messaging service Telegram has begun to cooperate with the French investigative authorities following the arrest of its founder, Pavel Durov.

Details: Telegram has already complied with requests from the Office for Minors (Ofmin), an agency of the French national police and gendarmerie, in several criminal investigations.
The platform has provided information that could help identify certain suspects in several cases. Among them are cases of paedophile crimes, Libération noted.
"The doors are really opening," Johanna Brousse, head of the J3 department, which deals with cybercrime at the Paris prosecutor's office, told the newspaper.
Libération said the changes are so unprecedented that the French prosecutor's office has begun reopening cold cases.
