JKH shares totaling 24.96 million were traded by around noon at a price range of Rs.179 to Rs.181 per share which works out to over Rs.4.4 billion.  A stock broker said he expects Mr. Rajaratnam to sell the rest of his stake in JKH which totaled 56 million or approximately 6% of JKH. He said the buyer is most likely foreign but could not confirm those details. Mr. Rajaratnam, a Sri Lankan, was arrested and indicted on insider trading charges in New York last year.<a href="http://www.sundaytimes.lk/financenews/articleXYZ100000010.php?id=54" target="_blank">ST</a></blockquote>
