TOYAH Battersby is reeling from the shock of Imran Habeeb’s death next week.
But while she mourns for her husband, the widow is questioned by police investigating his potential murder in Coronation Street.
Charlie De Melo has bowed out of the cobbles as his character Imran Habeeb faced a sudden death in recent scenes of the Manchester-based soap.
The solicitor was involved in a car crash alongside his wife Toyah (portrayed by Georgia Taylor) as he was willing to come clean to the police about his unlawful behaviour.
A police investigation was eventually launched as suspicions began to arise around Abi and Kevin Webster’s potential involvement in the crash horror.
However, the authorities set their sights on Imran’s widow next week as she’s accused of murder.

Coming up, Imran’s funeral takes place and Toyah delivers a heartfelt eulogy in front of fellow residents, claiming she wishes Imran had survived the crash instead of her.
Meanwhile, Adam Barlow (Sam Robertson) and Alya Nazir (Sair Khan) look sceptical as Toyah speaks.
The funeral ends and Peter Barlow (Chris Gascoyne) tells Toyah she could have a reason to be worried as he lets her know about Adam’s allegation.
Peter then asserts he has been questioned by the police about Susie and Toyah’s desperation for a baby.
Corrie fans may remember how Toyah was almost able to fulfil her dream of having a family when she was still romantically involved with Peter as the pair were close to taking in Susie Price, the daughter of Aidan Connor and Eva Price.
This didn’t pan out, however, notably following Aidan Connor’s suicide, as Eva and Susie left the cobbles for France.
Upon learning the police’s questions are leading them to her, Toyah calls at the station and tells DS Swain there are things they need to talk about.
