Overview
- Rome prosecutors requested the secreted portion of Sigfrido Ranucci’s November 4 Antimafia audition in the probe into the October 16 attack, pursued as aggravated damage by mafia method under DDA coordination.
- Report previewed documents alleging that Garante member Agostino Ghiglia informed Giorgia Meloni in 2021 of a Green Pass warning before public release, raising questions about possible breaches of the Authority’s ethics code.
- Ranucci said no illicit interceptions occurred and asserted that Ghiglia himself forwarded the exchange to the Authority’s office, attributing the quoted responses to Meloni.
- The program also alleges Meta’s smart‑glasses fine was cut from about €44 million to €12.5 million after a Ghiglia meeting with a Meta representative, while the Garante calls the account baseless, denies any risk of damage to the state, and urges Rai not to air the segment.
- Fratelli d’Italia officials condemn the use of the messages as unlawful and threaten legal action over separate claims of surveillance, as multiple oversight avenues remain engaged, including Antimafia, Rai Vigilance, and potential Corte dei Conti review.
