Bamjan faced accusations of causing the disappearance of his followers and committing child sexual abuse. The Sarlahi District Court issued an arrest warrant against him on February 6, 2020. Bamjan's permanent residence is Ratanpuri, Nijgadh Municipality-12, Bara.


Despite the arrest warrant issued in early 2020, Bamjan remained absconding for a considerable period. The Central Investigation Bureau (CIB) team apprehended him on January 9, 2024, in Kathmandu. Following the court's order, Bamjan was sent to prison on January 11, 2024.
