There weren't many people who would suggest to a powerful government that a man it would be tricky to arrest not only had something to do with the fall of a major capital city, but also that it resulted, somehow, in an artifact of significant military importance, especially for their military. There were fewer still that would be believed.
It was always possible that it was a setup by Aizen himself to discredit one of the Empire's leading opponents and cause civil unrest. They couldn't possibly have the evidence to support their accusations, short of discovering the stone itself and he'd apparently put it away quite safely.
