**** ANUPINDER SINGH GREWAL, J. (ORAL) The petitioner is seeking anticipatory bail in FIR No. 127 dated 06.09.2019, under Sections 307, 323, 324, 148, 149 and 506 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860 ('IPC' - for short) besides Sections 25 and 27 of the Arms Act, 1959, registered at Police Station Mahilpur, District Hoshiarpur. Learned counsel for the petitioner contends that the petitioner is attributed only a single injury on the non-vital part of the body of injured. She also contends that the offence under Section 307 IPC has been invoked because it is alleged that co-accused had fired shots but no one received any gunshot injury in the incident. She further contends that the matter has also been compromised between the parties and has referred to the copy of the compromise at Annexure P4.
