Pretty much the title , its not directly said but then again they mention the paypal he used to pay surfshark.

Could mean surfshark gave out that info or not.

"Hi hello! We have little to comment on this as we haven't received any legal inquiries regarding this case. Surfshark is a no logs service so in any case we could not help as we do not have any information about our user activities. Although we strive to provide stable VPN connectivity, sometimes it can happen that a connection with a VPN server drops. For such instances, we always recommend using a kill switch so that the user's IP would not be exposed which in this case frankly, I don't think he turned it on."

The question gets even more interesting

Don't be under any illusion, if there is a police investigation or anything else, the VPNs will spit out your connections...

If you really want "no-log", either you make your own VPN with a dedicated / VPS, or you take offshore servers
