Ste and Imran’s fates revealed in Hollyoaks as climactic showdown explodes

Ste wants answers from Imran (Picture: Lime Pictures / Metro) Hollyoaks has confirmed an almighty showdown for Ste Hay (Kieron Richardson) and Imran Maalik (Ijaz Rana), with answers sought and questions asked in the wake of the latter’s revenge plot. Imran, as viewers know, was revealed as the mastermind behind Ste’s vanishing nightmare, citing the chef’s lack of accountability for his past mistakes as the reason why. Ste disappeared from a shopping centre back in August, with various villagers drawn into the mystery and fingers pointed aplenty. It turned out that recently returned Imran was the culprit behind the crime – which was something he and Cindy Cunningham (Stephanie Waring) had spoken at length about while living in LA. Cindy, much like Imran, had been wronged by Ste and felt he should be punished for his crimes. Imran, however, made their discussions a reality when back in the village, much to the horror of Cindy, who urged him to free Ste and put an end to his revenge plot.

Imran was later apprehended by police – and shot during an intense showdown. The character pulls through but it’s safe to say he’s set to face the music for what he did. Ste, meanwhile, struggles to come to terms with everything he’s been through.
