Singapore files 41 charges against 5th suspect in Nvidia server case
What's new: Prosecutors said 917 servers were acquired across 41 deals, and the suspect was ordered tagged electronically before a Jan. 4 court date.
Singapore charged a fifth person in a case tied to alleged fraud involving servers that may have contained Nvidia chips. Shi Bingzhe, 34, a Chinese national, faces 41 counts linked to Superphi and NJ Global Financial, where authorities said he consented to the companies acquiring benefits from criminal conduct. Police said the two firms bought 917 servers from Aperia International in 41 transactions between May 2024 and February 2025 and had reason to believe the goods stemmed from false representation. The court set bail at S$300,000 and ordered Shi to wear an electronic tag. The case emerged after a US probe into whether DeepSeek obtained restricted advanced chips through third parties, including in Singapore.
