If I understand it is nothing he printed. It was the refusal to allow the police/authorities a back door to identify the posters.The app is accused of failure to cooperate with law enforcement over drug trafficking, child sexual content and fraud.
TF1 TV and BFM TV, both quoting unidentified sources, said the investigation was focused on a lack of moderators and that police considered that this situation allowed criminal activity to go on undeterred on the messaging app.

One of the investigators told AFP they were surprised Durov entered France despite the warrant against him, adding “enough of Telegram’s impunity”.

Meanwhile, the Russian embassy in France has demanded consular access to Durov and demanded that his rights be ensured, Russian state news agency TASS reported on Sunday.

The embassy said France has so far “avoided engagement” on the situation with Durov. Russian diplomats are in contact with Durov’s lawyer, the embassy said.

I read that the warrant was issued while he was in the air, and moments before he landed.

If that's true, this "investigator" is a lying POS.
