Elon Musk sent a letter to Twitter detailing additional reasons to terminate his $44 billion takeover deal.

In a filing on Tuesday, lawyers on behalf of Musk cited allegations by whistle-blower Peiter ZatkoBloomberg Terminal, Twitter’s ex-head of security, who claimed he raised questions about severe shortcomings in the social media company’s handling of users’ personal data. The letter said that the allegations meant that Twitter had breached the conditions in the merger agreement.
