Laravel 5 Ban users via Bican roles

I'm making a application in laravel 5.1 and I'm using Bican roles to manage the user's permissions and role names. Now I want to be able to ban my users.

So if I ban a user, the application needs to check globally the application if the user is banned. Im storing the bans in a new table outside of the users table because in that way, I can always find all the bans there were given to a specific user.

My database structure looks like this:

7 rows in set

Now I want if a user is banned, the user still can login, but redirects always to a view called banned.

I really don't knwo how I can do this global check in Laravel 5 in a propper way, if someone could help me out, that would be awesome!

Kindest regards

Robin
