I don't think he's been banned ( why would he be? ). As far as I'm aware, he's had some health issues.
The simplest thing to do would be to wait for him to show up on the forum - or at an event - and ask him the same questions again. Either he does own it, and will be able to come up with irrefutable proof fairly easily ( showing someone a photo won't quite cut it... ) or he doesn't, and won't. I haven't seen any of his forum buddies backing up or verifying the story either.
As the Count states, he's still recovering from the seizure he had last week so I doubt he will be active around the forum for the moment.
At some point Phil is going to need to clear up the story around the ZG (I would've asked him myself had he been at Tatton last weekend) but how and when that will happen I don't know. We will have to wait and see.
