He was charged with homicide, alongside three other persons alleged to be his accomplice. But Adeyanju denied the allegations in court, saying he was not even in Kano on the night of the killing and was freed.

Thirteen years after, the case was being cited by the Police, who have arrested and released Adeyanju on two different occasions before his last arrest late 2018.
