Pavel Durov liquidates the company Telegram Messenger LLP

One of the creators of the social network “VKontakte” Pavel Durov filed an application for the liquidation of the company Telegram Messenger LLP.

The corresponding document is published in the register of legal entities in the UK. It was filed on December 19, 2018 and published on the website of the registry on January 4, 2019.

Durov did not disclose the reasons for liquidating the company.

It should be recalled that in April 2018, Roskomnadzor began blocking the work of the Telegram messenger because of the refusal to provide the FSB with decryption keys for messages. At the same time, the application continues to work for many users. The ministry noted that they are taking measures to improve the effectiveness of blocking the program.

Currently, Telegram is one of the widely used applications in Uzbekistan for messaging.
