Rome Prosecutors Seek Secret Antimafia Testimony as Report Alleges 2021 Ghiglia–Meloni Messages on Green Pass

The request targets the closed portion of Sigfrido Ranucci’s hearing in the probe into the October car-bomb attack.

Overview

  • Prosecutors in Rome formally asked to acquire the 4 November Antimafia Commission audition of Report host Sigfrido Ranucci as evidence in the investigation into the 16 October attack on his cars in Pomezia.
  • The inquiry proceeds on the hypothesis of damage aggravated by a mafia method and is led by pm Carlo Villani under the coordination of Ilaria Calò, with the acquisition focused on a segment that was secreted.
  • The closed portion followed a question by Roberto Scarpinato about alleged surveillance tied to undersecretary Giovanbattista Fazzolari, who rejected any accusation and has signaled possible legal action.
  • Separately, Report previewed documents alleging that on 23 April 2021 Garante member Agostino Ghiglia informed Giorgia Meloni of the authority’s Green Pass warning, with replies attributed to her of "Visto, ora esco" and "bravo," and that Ghiglia notified the office of the exchange.
  • Ranucci told ANSA the material was provided to the Garante office by Ghiglia and was not illicitly intercepted, as Fratelli d’Italia’s Giovanni Donzelli condemned the publication as unconstitutional and Federica Corsini said she will pursue legal remedies over a separate broadcast audio.
