Despite trying to find peace within the Islam religion, he has been plagued with distressing images and thoughts with his dead sister at the centre of them.

After taking drugs in a bid to escape the images of Lucy, Bobby followed the ‘ghost’ towards a train station.
Alongside a soundtrack of Lucy’s voice tormenting him for killing her, worried onlookers – including those watching from home – saw him head towards the platform edge.
Lucy could be seen walking on the platform opposite, with Bobby appearing to head across the tracks to meet her…
EastEnders viewers feared Bobby – played by Clay Milner Russell – would be killed as he attempted to cross the tracks.
One viewer said: “No no no no not train tracks Bobby, no no #EastEnders #callumrescuehimnow!!”
Another added: “The scenes with Lucy haunting Bobby on tonight’s @bbceastenders were once again brilliant. I really hope Bobby doesn’t end up under a train #EastEnders.”
A third said: “Really Bobby about to kill himself? Wow EastEnders is the English horror story #EastEnders.”

#EastEnders I love this storyline with Bobby’s mental health and how he’s struggling with it. It really highlights the key issues with mental health . The editing with his hallucinations is brilliant as well. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Others praised the storyline, with one saying: “I love this storyline with Bobby’s mental health and how he’s struggling with it. It really highlights the key issues with mental health. The editing with his hallucinations is brilliant as well.”
Viewers know that Bobby accidentally murdered his sister in 2014, and has struggled with guilt and anxiety ever since.
He believes she’s haunting him from beyond the grave.
Will his psychotic hallucinations lead to him killing himself?
