• Monzino announced plans to file a formal complaint against Corona and maintains that proof of his new account is stored on his phone, which remains seized by the Polizia Postale.
• Monzino remains under formal investigation for attempted extortion of Raoul Bova, while Corona is officially classified as a person informed about the facts.
• The Rome prosecutor’s office and Polizia Postale are conducting ongoing forensic analyses of the seized devices to verify the chain-of-custody and determine legal liability.
• Monzino says Martina Ceretti initially agreed to share some material but is now unreachable, adding uncertainty over her current involvement in the probe.
