EastEnders fans relieved as drugs saga 'finally' ends with Ravi arrest... but Harry and Kojo aren't in the clear yet
Ravi faced the consequences of his actions
Ravi was arrested in EastEnders tonight (Wednesday, November 5), as Harry revealed to the police what had been going on at Kojo’s flat. With the residents of Walford in a state of shock from last night’s events, George pressured Kojo and Harry to come clean to the police.
While Kojo was keeping tight-lipped, Harry realised that he had to make amends for his part in Kojo’s torment. And, in spite of Nicola’s reservations, told the police everything.
They rushed over to Albert Square, where Ravi was planning a hasty exit. EastEnders fans rejoiced as Ravi was dragged away, marking the beginning of the end to this particular storyline.
Here’s everything that happened in EastEnders tonight – and what happens next.
Okie and Ravi’s panic as the police questioned Kojo and Harry
It was the morning after the night before, and with Kojo at the hospital, the family were reeling at what had happened. Spotting the commotion, Ravi arranged a meeting with Okie.
At the hospital, George made it clear to Teddy that he blamed Harry for what had happened. The police needed Kojo or Harry’s testimony before they could take action though, which George was determined to get from his brother.
Nicola arrived at the hospital to a cold reception from George. He was in a particularly self-righteous mood, although Nicola was quick to point out that Kojo had started it all by flushing the drugs.
Harry, meanwhile, was in recovery from his injury, and on methadone to assist with drug withdrawals. He was worried that Okie and his men would be back for him. Kojo, meanwhile, refused to talk to the police, out of fear that he’d be deported.
Outside, Nicola begged George not to rat Harry out to the police. Joining Kojo and the police in his room, George tried to get Kojo to open up to the police, but he refused – fearing for Goerge, Gina and the rest of his family’s safety.
Ravi was arrested in EastEnders tonight
Meeting with Okie, Ravi demanded to know what had been going on at the flat. Okie begged for a place to lay low, but Ravi refused, and stormed off.
It was time to get out of town, and he tried to convince Priya to join him on an impromptu getaway to Ibiza. She wasn’t having it though, and Ravi was forced to plan his exit alone.
Meanwhile, at the hospital, Harry took a visit from a still-very-angry George. Ignoring the fact that Harry had been chained up to a radiator for the last month, he accused him of being as bad as Okie and his thugs.
George’s words ringing in his ears, Harry gave his statement to the police – naming names. All of them.
Bad news for Ravi, who had packed his bag and was ready to go. After bidding a tender farewell to Priya, he was about to leave when the police barged in, arresting him under charges of supplying drugs, human trafficking and exploitation.
