It could be that someone got fired for something they did and you got the blame for them being fired.

Or it could be something else, so spill the beans what workplace dramas have you been involved in?

Forgot to mention some stuff too: the evidence of IP theft came from one of the directors of the company taking over our project, the accusations themselves were presented by the owner of the overall company, who came to our city in person with some rather brutish fellows in tow (we were told they were his cyber security experts). While the investigation was ongoing, we were barred from using our workplaces, our computers got locked, the computers of the accused people got taken away altogether and both the team lead and the other guy got subjected to a lie detector test.

It was a tense new year's eve.

Wow, sounds like one big problem, I mean it must have been awkward having the computers taken away as well

It was, especially since we weren't given a leave or anything. So we would just sit around an empty office
