If he cheated you by giving fake identity then you can register a police complaint against that person.
With respect to the custody of the child, generally the rule set by the precedents is that the custody of the child remains with the mother till the child has attained the age of 5 years.

Thereafter for the better future of the child the court grants the custody to the parent with whom the court feels the child's future is secure.
