Coronation Street murderer exposed by shock comeback
STEPHEN Reid continues to wreak havoc in the cobbles and murder could definitely be in the cards again.
But there’s another killer waiting to be exposed in Coronation Street and one shock return shines a light on their deeds.
With Stephen slowly turning into one of Weatherfield’s deadliest characters, it’s easy to forget he’s not the only one to have taken lives.
However, when Zeedan Nazir watched his former father-in-law Hashim die of a heart attack alongside his sister Alya, his intentions were far from villainous.
In fact, the character played Qasim Akhtar turned his former wife Marrium away to protect her from the truth.
But he’s in for a shock next week on ITV.
In scenes due on our screens, actress Kiran Landa reprises her role as Marrium calls on Zeedan.
The returning character tells her estranged husband she can’t believe that he and Alya (Sair Khan) watched her father die in front of them.
Terrified of having to face repercussions, particularly as Hashim was a crooked and vicious restaurateur who dabbled in crime, Zeedan begs her not to go to the police.
Alya later finds Marrium in the café and tells her that she’s as much to blame for Hashim’s death as Zeedan is.
She soon comes to the realisation that Zeedan is sacrificing his relationship with Marrium for her sake.
As viewers of the Manchester-based program will remember, Marrium was keen to rekindle their marriage but was turned down by Zeedan when it was clear his guilt over Hashim’s death eating at him.
In later scenes, Alya tells her brother that she doesn’t need protecting and she returns to work in the restaurant, weeks after being brutally stabbed in Speed Daal.

Can Zeedan and Marrium fix their relationship, despite their troubled past?
