June 22 (Reuters) - The U.S Attorney's Office in Brooklyn, New York, has sent inquiries in recent months to investors with large holdings in Adani Group, focused on what the Indian ports-to-power giant told them, Bloomberg News reported on Thursday. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission also has a similar probe underway, Bloomberg reported, citing two people familiar with the matter. The authorities are looking into the representations that Adani made to its American investors following short-seller Hindenburg's report, the Bloomberg report said. India's markets watchdog in May had "drawn a blank" in investigations into suspected violations in overseas investments in the Adani group and a Supreme Court-appointed panel said its ongoing pursuit of the case could be a "journey without a destination". Adani Group and the U.S. Attorney General's office did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
