Emmerdale's evil Meena tricks Liam with sexual harassment lie after rape fears

Emmerdale viewers were repulsed by Meena Jutla's latest scheme on Thursday night, as the latest episode of the ITV soap saw her tell a sick lie.

Fans had feared Meena would rape drunk Liam Cavanagh, who was in a bad way after their work Christmas party.

She led him back to where she was staying and put him on her bed, before dancing seductively around the room.

Amid her lies to ex Billy Fletcher that she is pregnant with his child, fans feared Meena would rape Liam hoping to get pregnant - or that she would pretend they had sex to blackmail him.

When the confused doctor woke up during Thursday's episode with no memory of the night before, or how he got into Meena's bed, she initially made him think something had happened between them.

She then revealed nothing did happen, but implied Liam had "persistently" harassed her for sex before passing out.

Liam was mortified over his apparent behaviour, fearing he could have gone too far - not realising Meena was sickeningly making the whole thing up.

Left believing he had sexually harassed his colleague and tried to make a move on her, Meena smirked as she told him she would keep it from his wife Leyla.

Of course it seems she is messing with Liam in a bid to get him to back up her fake pregnancy, and viewers were horrified.

As Liam apologised and confessed he didn't know how he got into her room, she told him: "Oh that’s how you are playing this, you forgot, huh? As in you forgot you were putting moves on me."

As he replied: "What?" she said: "So you don’t recall telling me I'm amazing and asking me to slow dance amongst other things?"

Liam said: "Tell me nothing happened, please Meena, tell me."

She eventually said: "Even if I'd wanted it to, which incidentally would never happen, you weren’t exactly... capable shall we say, even if you were pretty persistent.

"Let's just say I'm glad you passed out before you made even more of a fool out of yourself. It's not as if Leyla needs to find out, don't worry I've got your back."

She later told him that "maybe he could return the favour" one day, and we're willing to bet it's linked to her baby lie.

Emmerdale airs weeknights at 7pm on ITV, with an extra episode at 8pm on Thursdays.
