Home and Away has announced that Mali Hudson’s brother will be heading to Summer Bay.

Mali’s older sibling Iluka arrives on screen in Wednesday’s episode (June 5) at Australian pace, kicking off a big new storyline.

Iluka turns up just as Mali’s relationship with his girlfriend Rose Delaney is back in a good place following recent tensions over Tane Parata’s baby kidnapping case.

Mali isn’t expecting to see Iluka and immediately questions what he’s doing in town. Although Iluka claims that he’s merely checking in for a catch-up with his younger brother, Mali can’t help fearing there’s more to it.

Later, Mali assures Rose that Iluka has no hidden agenda and she has nothing to worry about – but there’s sure to be more to it.

A report in Aussie magazine TV Week has revealed that Iluka is on the run from some dangerous figures who’ve caused trouble for him in the past.

Is it only a matter of time before Iluka’s enemies follow him to the Bay – and could Mali and Rose find themselves embroiled in the drama if they do?

Dion Williams has been cast in the role of Iluka.

Writing on his Instagram Stories this week, Kyle Shilling – who plays Mali – teased: “This storyline is something else, be sure you watch.”

Home and Away fans were previously introduced to Mali’s sister Elandra and mum Victoria last year.

Viewers in the UK will see Iluka’s first scenes on Channel 5 next month.
