Is it permissible to buy shares from companies that engage in Sharia-compliant investment transactions but deposit their money in interest-based (usurious) banks?

It is forbidden for a company to deposit its money in interest-based (usurious) banks, unless it is compelled to do so due to the absence of an Islamic bank and fears for the shareholders' money. In such a case, it is permissible for the company to deposit its money in the bank and dispose of the usurious interest by spending it on general public welfare for Muslims.
