EASTENDERS fans are in shock as Suki Panesar framed her son Jags for attacking Martin Fowler after discovering his secret relationship with Habiba Ahmed.
The scheming mother - who is played by actress Balvinder Sopal in the BBC soap - showed just how ruthless she could be at dealing with her wayward children.
A frosty Suki was already furious after finding Jags’ bloodied jeans from the aftermath of the attack in the laundry basket for anyone to find.
But after she was called to the Vic for a surprise from Jags - and he revealed he loved Habiba, Suki lost it.
The ice queen stood up, placed a £20 note on the table and uttered the least convincing “welcome to the family” ever heard before walking out.
She then walked out and met up with the police detective investigating the attack on Martin in The Minute Mart.
“It’s very hard as another to know how best to protect your children,” she told him.
“You spend your life terrified that something’s going to happen to them - desperate to insulate them from the harsh realities of life.
“And then one day you realise you might have gone too far. That you might be responsible for making bad choices.
“As much as this pains me to say it, I can’t protect that boy anymore.”
She pushed over a package containing Jags’ jeans and gave it to the detective.
Fans were in shock at how easily Suki threw Jags under the bus.
