Emmerdale EXIT spoiler Has Rakesh Kotecha left for good after dramatic robbery?
Rakesh (played by Pasha Bocarie) made a last ditch desperate attempt to leave Emmerdale with some cash while avoiding his court appearance.
The ITV villain initially tried to blackmail Lawrence White (John Bowe) for the pricey sum of £50,000 in order not to drop him in it at court.
However, laughed out of Home Farm, he then hid and ambushed Lachlan White (Thomas Atkinson), who was in the middle of paying a prostitute.
Using this as blackmail, Rakesh forced Lachlan to open the safe and hand over everything inside.
