A new EastEnders theory could see teenager Marvin linked to another character on the BBC soap, amid him causing trouble for Avani Nandra-Hart.

Avani was left facing a horror ordeal this week in scenes that disgusted fans, as she was wrongly accused by police officers of possessing drugs. They were on the floor of the tube station by her feet, as she and her pals Amy Mitchell and Lily Slater skipped school.

They belonged to someone she knew named Marvin, a fellow teen from the girls’ school who sold Avani vapes last year. Marvin had dropped the drugs after seeing the officers at the station, before he fled the scene.

It almost looked like he deliberately left them by Avani’s feet after she rejected his offer of the pills, while this wasn’t entirely clear. Either way, they were not Avani’s but the lead officer did not believe her and instead took the three girls to the police station.

What followed was horrifying scenes as the 15 year old was forced to undergo a strip search, having been told that if she did not cooperate she would be restrained and it would go ahead. Avani was shaken as the officer made her remove her clothes completely, including underwear, so that she could be searched for any more drugs.

The pills were never Avani’s to begin with, with Marvin clearly dealing again and getting away with it. Amid Avani’s ordeal, some viewers began to speculate that Marvin could be linked to someone else on the show and that this person might find themselves caught up in the storyline.

Avani’s dad Ravi Gulati will soon learn the distressing events his teenaged daughter has faced, with fans expecting him to take action. But fans now think Ravi will find out that the boy possessing and dealing the pills, Marvin, could be working for someone he knows very well.

Viewers believe this plot is linked to the recent dodgy pills being dealt around Walford, with Nicola Mitchell being in charge of the operation. Ravi is someone who has been selling drugs on her behalf, so what if Marvin has also been doing her dirty work for her?

Taking to social media, one fan predicted: “I wouldn’t be surprised if Marvin (the lad who sold Avani the vapes last year & who dropped the drugs) is connected to Nicola Mitchell, Ravi and Nicola’s mystery partner. Recently Nicola threatened someone for peddling dodgy pills.”

Another fan agreed: “Yeah that wouldn’t surprise me if the supplier of the dodgy drugs to Harry was also the one who supplied the vapes to Avani and landed her in hot water.

“This could lead to Ravi cutting ties with Nicola all together so he could fully focus on being a good father to Avani.”

A third fan added: “Yep I’m thinking this too. I wonder how far this storyline will go as well. I think more will happen.”
