The former Wimbledon player and television personality was arrested and held for two days because he was involved in a scam to sell land that wasn’t for sale.
The 54-year-old allegedly pocketed £23,000 after acting for a friend who was looking to buy land.
Fashanu has reportedly agreed to pay back the money but has denied any wrongdoing.
“It will all be sorted very quickly. It was just a business deal.”
Fashanu was forced to surrender his British passport and pay the money back in instalments ahead of his release.
“He was granted administrative bail on July 18 but because of his inability to produce the requisite surety on that day, he remained in detention until July 19 when he was released.”
