Emmerdale looks set to take a turn for the sinister as serial killer Meena Jutla’s trial ramps up, as a DNA connection between her prison guard Ian and one of her former victims has been ‘exposed’.
In recent scenes, avid viewers have seen the sister of Meena’s first ever victim Nadine appear in court to see the killer brought to justice.
But Meena is only charged with the murders of Andrea Tate, Leanna Cavanagh and Ben Tucker – not her old pal Nadine, as the police couldn’t find sufficient evidence to rule out a suicide, despite Meena confessing to the crime several times.
Carol, Nadine’s sister, had to flee from the public viewing area as she couldn’t stand to see Meena escape justice for her beloved sister.
But fans have now figured out a key DNA connection which could see Meena face more than a few years in prison, as they suspect her prison guard Ian is the brother of the late Nadine.
Meena and Ian have been getting closer recently, with him bringing her gifts and clearly lusting after her as they travelled to court and back.
But could it all be an act to exact the perfect revenge for his dead sister, as he ends up murdering Meena behind bars after the trial comes to a close? Viewers certainly think so.
Taking to social media, one eagle-eyed fan theorised: “I think Ian the jail guard is the link to Meena’s best friend she killed, probably her brother, and he may kill her off. Now that would be interesting, Meena dying dead in her cell. Then they take us back to how it happened.”
As another agreed: “I’m sorry but I’m not believing this guard Ian is a gullible as he’s coming across… here’s my theory Ian could be a brother of Meena’s first victim her best friend, or a brother of Ben maybe and he might kill Meena or something. Just a guess.”
“Anyone else think that prison guard is a relative of one of Meena’s victims? I’m sure he’s only taking a special interest so he can somehow bring her down. Or murder her and make it look like an accident. Fingers crossed eh?” someone else wondered.

A fourth fan echoed: “I’m sure I’ve worked out the forthcoming twist. The person that Leyla was mysteriously talking to on the phone last week will be Ian, the prison guard. He’ll know Meena and have an interest in her getting her comeuppance. I think she’ll get off and then be killed by Ian.”
And someone else agreed: “That prison guard seems a bit weird, but I reckon he could be the brother of Nadine and when Meena gets found guilty he then attacks her causing her to die, a bit out there I know but would be a great twist!”
Only time will tell if Meena gets sent down at all, and who Ian really is – but one thing is for sure, the current plot has fans on the edge of their seats.
And actress Paige Sandhu has already promised a twist so epic that she dropped her script…
Emmerdale airs weeknights from 7:30pm on ITV.
