According to the CID, a case was registered following a complaint by Dharam Guruva Reddy, General Secretary of Telangana Cricket Association, over the alleged misappropriation of funds by Jagan Mohan and others.

“A Jagan Mohan Rao, in collusion with G Kavitha and Rajendra Yadav, forged documents of Sri Chakra Cricket Club, which was earlier known as Gowlipura Cricket Club (GCC), by forging signatures of C Krishna Yadav, who is president of GCC. Their forged documents were used as genuine, enabling Jagan Mohan to dishonestly gain entry into HCA as president,” Charu Sinha, Additional DGP, CID Telangana, had stated at the time of arrest of the five suspects.
