ItalyIn early July 2026, shortly before Valter Lavitola was accused of orchestrating an attack in Campo Ascolano, Sigfrido Ranucci gave an interview to The Standard, a Zimbabwean newspaper, discussing an investigation into corruption and the carbon credit industry in Zimbabwe. The interview, which was later removed from the internet, reportedly revealed that Ranucci was conducting his own inquiry into these issues and had contacted the Zimbabwean Embassy in Italy. According to the interview, a local partner claimed to act on behalf of the president but was suspected of being an imposter. Lavitola faced challenges with his business, Future Awaits Holding, due to anti-money laundering regulations in Zimbabwe. In October 2025, Kreston Zimbabwe announced it would end its collaboration with Future Awaits Holding, two weeks after the Pomezia bombing. Shortly afterward, Ranucci met with Italian partners of Lavitola at the Cefalù Bistrò.
