I like the phrase “asylum seeker”. It is kinder and gentler.
A wave of national fury has swept Holland following the arrest of an “asylum seeker” for the brutal killing of a 17-year-old who he viciously stabbed to death; she was calling the police to report being followed on her bike ride home.
The main suspect - a 22-year-old “kind and gentle” male “asylum seeker” there for a “better life” - (q) was arrested four days earlier for a rape in Amsterdam on August 15, and (b) allegedly assaulted a third woman five days earlier.
