"The Central Bank is presently said to be investigating the recent large purchases of shares by investors who may have contravened banking regulations, and be connected to the controversial company Goldquest, which is under investigation," NDB said.

GoldQuest is believed to have picked up the NDB parcel from Janashakthi Group recently by allegedly using Credit Suisse and Fast Gains as a front.
