WASHINGTON — The Department of Justice has launched a grand jury investigation into centimillionaire Neville Roy Singham for allegedly breaking the law to fund a network of Marxist and other left-wing groups in the US for more than a decade, The Post has learned.
Grand jurors have been empaneled in Manhattan and prosecutors in US Attorney Jay Clayton’s Office have fired off subpoenas for bank records to probe allegations of money laundering or other financial fraud, according to a source familiar with the matter.
The grand jury probe into the Shanghai-based tech mogul, first reported by Fox News, was begun months ago and authorized by Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, the source said.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has also met with Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon amid the investigation, as the bank’s philanthropic entity, the GS Donor Advised Philanthropy Fund For Wealth Management, allegedly helped funnel Singham’s dollars to US groups.
In total, $285 million has flowed from Singham to the Goldman Sachs philanthropic fund and shell companies — before moving onto nonprofits, media organizations and other activist groups, per Fox News Digital.
Bessent reportedly warned that Goldman that it could be implicated in an alleged conspiracy involving Singham’s contributions if it didn’t cooperate with the DOJ’s probe.
Solomon agreed to assist prosecutors, Fox reported.
The Post previously reported that the China-based Singham has also donated more than $15 million to radical social justice groups globally via a P.O. box in Chicago.
In a speech this past November at the Global South Academic Forum in Shanghai, Singham called for a “new world order”, invoked Chinese despot Mao Zedong’s cries for a “people’s war” to spread communism, and declared the US a “fascist” country.
Much of the millionaire’s fortune was made through the sale of the IT company ThoughtWorks for roughly $785 million to Apax Partners, a London-based private equity firm.
The left-wing donor has also been married since 2017 to Jodie Evans, founder of far-left anti-war group CODEPINK.
Congressional Republicans have been probing Singham’s ties to CODEPINK and demanded its tax-exempt status to be stripped for allegedly taking money from foreign adversaries instead and not using the funds for charitable purposes.
Reps for the DOJ and Treasury did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
