The charges include criminal conspiracy, threat to life, intimidation, and trespassing.

The 62-year-old, however, strongly denied the allegations, which stemmed from a land dispute involving investors who had agreed to pay over £500,000 for his 22-acre plot.

According to The Mirror, Fashanu was arrested after questioning contractors who were building a fence on his land.

Fashanu claimed that he, his wife Vivian, and their lawyer were subjected to “arrest, detention, and inhuman treatment” for “about three hours” on December 16.

He further accused the police of violating his rights through the “subsequent intermittent constraints on his personal liberty” and a “gross unconstitutional violation.”

His lawyer, Mr Chigbu, confirmed: “All three have met their bail conditions and have been admitted to administrative bail by the police.”

John Fashanu, who played for Norwich City, Wimbledon, and Aston Villa, was a key figure in Wimbledon’s 1988 FA Cup triumph and earned two caps for England.
