Ferozepur.

(3.) LEARNED counsel for the petitioner submits that in compliance of the above said order passed by this court, the petitioner approached the learned court of Sessions at Ferozepur. However, vide impugned order dated 26.5.2012 (Annexure P-8), the learned Additional Sessions Judge, Ferozepur, has declined the prayer of the petitioner for anticipatory bail proceeding on wholly misconceived approach.
