Use find first instead (that was my original mistake). Your $category variable is being populated with a read. On the assumption that you want the variable $category to be populated with 'this' category, do this (then check the variable $category in the view - die(debug($category)); is good for that):

I tried your code, but I still do not get the related posts appearing
on the category view. Looking at the debug SQL at the bottom of the
screen I see that there is no SELECT statement for the posts table.

I use that to store the category, so the user does not have to set the
category when adding a new post.
