Gone through the rejection order at Annexure-3 in respect of the co- accused persons referring to which Mr. Bhanjadeo, learned counsel for the petitioners would submit that the injuries mentioned therein stated to be simple in nature. It is submitted that there is a counter F.I.R. lodged as per Annexure-2. The real reason behind the lodging of the F.I.Rs is disclosed by Mr. Bhanjadeo, learned counsel in course of hearing.
