Pavel Durov two days interrogated in Dubai

The interrogation, which was held on January 7-8 in Dubai, really took place. The Bell found the transcripts — the document says that the actor two days in a row was explaining to the SEC lawyers how much money he spent on the Telegram and TON, why the ICO decided to spend much spent on equipment and why not consider Gram securities.
