They haven't got grounds to fire you. If you didn't do the crime then why would you need to declare it? It shouldn't be up to you to prove your innocence, it should be up to them to prove your guilt. They've asked you if it's true, you've denied it and stated there must be some mistake. AFAIC I'd follow it up but that doesn't mean your employer has the right to assume you're a liar. Unfortunately, and I hate to generalise, but HR people tend to be of a certain "ilk" - just an observation I've made over the years.
