A cricketer has been arrested for faking his age during a match related to the trial of the Maharashtra Cricket Association Under-19 team. According to a Times of India report, Baramati city police arrested Malegaon cricketer Amol Kolpe on Saturday in a child tampering case.
Amal Kolpe was sent to court custody for 14 days after the three-day police custody ended. Kolpe is given the opportunity to file a regular bond request after her arrest. It was discovered that she misrepresented her age during MCA Under-19 Invitational League matches in January of this year.

Following a complaint by Nana Satav, a representative of the Karbhari Club, the police arrested Kolpe and three others on charges of fraud and forgery. The other three, who are named in the FIR, have approached the Baramati Sessions Court for early bail, which is expected to be heard on Thursday.
“We had verified the documents presented by the complainant. After verification, we questioned the boy from Malegaon (Nashik district) on the issue of hiding his real age and then arrested him.” Inspector Sunil Mahadik of the Baramati City Police told TOI.

“We will collect all the documents related to Kolpe’s actual date of birth and what the boy presented for the tournament he played in Baramati earlier this year. We will also explore the role of other people in the case.” He concluded.
The plaintiff Satav, who previously served as GST commissioner, said that failing to properly address the problem of excess will affect the careers of young players who follow the regulations.
“I approached the police due to the incompetent handling of the case by the (tournament) authorities involved. Not adequately addressing the problem of excess is nothing more than gambling with the careers of those young players who follow the rules. Satav told TOI.
