telegram He made a deposit of BRL 1.2 million with the Federal Supreme Court on Thursday (2), after Minister Alexandre de Moraes decided to fine the company.. Last week, the app was fined for failing to ban federal lawmaker Nikolas Ferreira’s (PL-MG) channel.
Despite forwarding the deposit, Telegram said it appealed the minister’s decision to fine him. If Moraes does not retract the fine, Telegram wants the amount reduced as the company blocks other channels that were part of the same decision.
“Given the possibility of damage to a hard-to-repair right, the truthfulness of the claims, and the possibility of rectification of unilateral termination, the amount now deposited should remain in a judicial account until the Court of Appeal’s decision.” , says Telegram.
The application also argues on appeal that Moraes’ decision loses its purpose, as Ferreira’s social networks have been reactivated. The company is still questioning the day count of the fine – the fine has been increased by R$100,000 per day for non-compliance with the first order.
In connection with the incident, which was fined on January 13, Telegram recommended that the judge “review” the decisions to remove the profiles.
