The order was passed on November 6, by Sandeep Singh Sen, KCS (Judicial), Special Railway Magistrate, Jammu. The court considered a police inquiry that examined Manhas's educational certificates, identity documents and employment records. The inquiry found no evidence of document manipulation.
Mehta claimed that Mithun Manhas had used two different dates of birth to secure selection in national sub-junior and junior tournaments under the JKCA and the Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA).
However, the DDCA website showed October 12, 1979. Mehta also claimed that his earlier complaints to the Nowabad police station and the SP City North in Jammu had not led to action.
The police examined Manhas's CBSE educational records, PAN card, Aadhaar card and employment details from Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC).
Court Says DDCA Website Discrepancy Does Not Establish Forgery
After examining the complaint and police report, the court noted that Mehta had relied mainly on a photocopy of information downloaded from the DDCA website. He had not submitted an original or authenticated document from the association showing that Mithun Manhas had provided a fabricated birth certificate.
The magistrate explained that a forgery case requires evidence showing that someone created a false document with dishonest or fraudulent intent. The court said the DDCA website entry required verification by the association and could not independently establish age manipulation.

The magistrate further observed that the power to order an investigation under Section 175(3) of the BNSS was judicial in nature and could not be exercised mechanically. The provision was not meant to settle personal grievances based on unverified assumptions or information downloaded from a website.
Holding that the complaint did not establish any prima facie case of a cognizable offence, the court dismissed the application as devoid of sufficient merit.
