Ingrid Lewis-Martin, the formidable consigliere of Mayor Eric Adams, will surrender Thursday to face accusations she helped two businessmen who gave her DJ son a $100,000 loan to buy a Porsche, The Post has learned.
The accusations – first reported in the New York Times – form the backbone of bribery charges expected to be leveled against Lewis-Martin, her son Glenn Martin II and at least one of the businessmen, hotelier Mayank Dwivedi, sources confirmed to The Post.
Lewis-Martin has been ordered to surrender to authorities Thursday afternoon, sources familiar with the case said.
“They’re going to lean on her like no tomorrow,” one source said, theorizing that the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office would try to get Lewis-Martin to flip on Adams, possibly in relation to the case against him brought by federal prosecutors.
The expected indictment against Lewis-Martin led to her sudden resignation as Adams’ senior adviser over the weekend.
Sources told The Post that Manhattan prosecutors believe Lewis-Martin, in her City Hall role, allegedly expedited a hold-up with a construction project run by the two businessmen.
The businessmen allegedly had given her son, a DJ, a six-figure loan to buy a Porsche before Ingrid-Martin is said to have returned the favor, the sources said.
Lewis-Martin’s lawyer Arthur Aidala declined to comment.
Representatives with DA Alvin Bragg’s office and the city Department of Investigation, which conducted the probe, declined to comment.
Dwivedi’s lawyer Teny R. Geragos didn’t return a call for comment. Glenn Martin II couldn’t be immediately reached for comment.
