Casualty's series producer said: "We are delighted that Shaheen is joining the cast of Casualty. He is a huge talent with such a warm screen presence and we know he will bring so much to the show.
"Shaheen plays Marty, who has razor sharp wit, but he soon discovers that being an ED nurse takes more than a cheeky wink and a clever one-liner!"
Shakil left EastEnders as part of a harrowing knife crime storyline which see the teenager lose his life. Marty will first appear in Casualty in the autumn.
EastEnders airs weeknights on BBC One.
