Emmerdale's Victoria Barton is left distraught tonight (June 17) as she's wrongly accused of carrying out a vengeful plan against rapist Lee Posner.
Victoria (Isabel Hodgins) finds herself facing questions from the police after an official complaint is made against her.
Monday's episode sees Robert Sugden and Aaron Dingle team up to destroy Lee's reputation, targeting him at work by putting up posters which expose him as a rapist.
Robert and Aaron plan to keep their secret scheme to themselves, but they're thwarted when Victoria finds some of the leftover posters and demands an explanation.
Under pressure from Victoria, sheepish Robert and Aaron return to the car dealership where Lee works. They plan to remove the posters, but it's too late as the villain has already seen them.
