Just to clarify by "Asian" the reporter means of Pakistani descent.

Yup. In almost all these stories "Asian" actually means Pakistani Muslims.

The political correctness in Europe is even worse than here.

I was under the impression that “Asian” has always meant people of Middle Eastern origins to the folks in the UK ... not necessarily being PC. ??

The Brits have always referred to them as Asians.
