Fetch deleted messages by discord upon a user ban

Currently I am fetching all deleted messages which were deleted manually. Unfortunately that does not work when I ban a user and have the messages automatically deleted that this user posted by the day.

const client            = new Client({
    intents: [
        [...]
        GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessages,
        GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessageReactions,
        GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessageTyping,
        [...]
    ],
    partials: [Partials.Message, Partials.Channel, Partials.Reactions]
});

/**
 * Message Handler if a message is deleted
 */
 client.on('messageDelete', async message => {
    const sleep = (delay) => new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(resolve, delay))
    
    if( message.content && message.content.length > 0 ) {
        console.log( 'Message deleted...' );
        let content     = message.content;
        if( message.attachments.size > 0 ){
            message.attachments.forEach( att => { content = `${content}\n[${att.name}](${att.attachment}) `; });
        }

        await sleep(1000);
        const logs          = await message.guild.fetchAuditLogs({ type: AuditLogEvent.MessageDelete, limit: 5 });
        const auditentry    = logs.entries.find(a =>
            a.target.id === message.author.id &&
            a.extra.channel.id === message.channel.id &&
            Date.now() - a.createdTimestamp < 20000
        );
        
        // here is a check for certain channels and roles which I do not want to log

        try {
            let helpEmbed   = new EmbedBuilder();
            //here is the message created and sent to the channel
        }catch(error) {
            console.debug( error );
        }
    }
});

const client            = new Client({
    intents: [
        [...]
        GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessages,
        GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessageReactions,
        GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessageTyping,
        [...]
    ],
    partials: [Partials.Message, Partials.Channel, Partials.Reactions]
});

 client.on('messageDelete', async message => {
    const sleep = (delay) => new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(resolve, delay))
    
    if( message.content && message.content.length > 0 ) {
        console.log( 'Message deleted...' );
        let content     = message.content;
        if( message.attachments.size > 0 ){
            message.attachments.forEach( att => { content = `${content}\n[${att.name}](${att.attachment}) `; });
        }

        await sleep(1000);
        const logs          = await message.guild.fetchAuditLogs({ type: AuditLogEvent.MessageDelete, limit: 5 });
        const auditentry    = logs.entries.find(a =>
            a.target.id === message.author.id &&
            a.extra.channel.id === message.channel.id &&
            Date.now() - a.createdTimestamp < 20000
        );
        
        // here is a check for certain channels and roles which I do not want to log

        try {
            let helpEmbed   = new EmbedBuilder();
            //here is the message created and sent to the channel
        }catch(error) {
            console.debug( error );
        }
    }
});

Also I was trying to get the handler messageDeletedBulk to work which did not show any data. Any idea on how I can get these messages? node Version: v16..20.1 npm Version: 9.8.1 discord.js Version: 14.11.0
