"NRI" is a new expression to me—it's what the Indian Press uses to describe Indians who live overseas. They don't, by the way, usually distinguish between those who are still citizens of India, and thous who may have sworn oaths of citizenship to other countries, they still think of them as Indians. This is a horrifying murder in London, and to the Indian press it was committed by an NRI.

NRI man sentenced to life murdering his wife

London: A 32-year-old Indian-origin man was on Saturday jailed for life for masterminding the "cold-blooded" murder of his estranged wife, who was hacked to death with a machete on the streets of London in 2009.

Harpreet Aulakh was sentenced to life in prison with a minimum tariff of 28 years at the Old Bailey Court for masterminding the murder of his wife Geeta Aulakh, 28, who had left him and was seeking a divorce.[More]
