"Banned" would be correct there. The sentence is in the past tense; the verbs are "put" and "ban", and the past tenses are "put" and "banned" respectively. (Also, if you haven't yet checked it out, please visit our sister site, English Language Learners.)

I guess, banned should be used in that sentence. Banning is looking more present tense in this context.

Yes, it should be ‘banned’, unless you’ve cut the sentence short.
