Singapore expels woman who had affair with NVIDIA executive over spying fears

Singapore has expelled Alice Huang, a woman previously under investigation for her role in alleged server procurement fraud at the company Megaspeed. While authorities found insufficient evidence to charge her, she was barred from re-entering the country for lying to investigators during the probe, which remains ongoing for other suspects.

Singaporean authorities have expelled Alice Huang, an individual associated with the company Megaspeed, following an investigation into potential server procurement fraud. Although investigators began looking into the matter in February 2025, they ultimately determined that there was insufficient evidence to pursue criminal charges against her. However, authorities concluded that she intentionally provided false information during interrogations regarding her professional role to minimize her involvement. Consequently, she received a formal warning and has been permanently barred from re-entering the country.

Huang, who had been under scrutiny due to her connections to an NVIDIA executive, had her passport seized in June 2025 to ensure her cooperation. After the investigation concluded, her travel documents were returned on February 26, 2026, and she departed the nation immediately. While the case against Huang is closed, the broader investigation into Megaspeed and six other suspects remains ongoing. Notably, the remaining individuals implicated in the inquiry have not returned to Singapore since the probe originally commenced.
