“and partner”
Instantly makes ones’ mind think she is gay. Damn the gay militants. Damn them straight to hell for making people think this way.
“Businessman” and photo at the link.
Not the issue here.
She's too pretty to be gay, and he needs a shave (even more than Rosie O'Donnell). It's simply a cultural diversity thing. The Scots serve their unwelcome guests haggis and a certain "religion" is a little more direct.
Doesn't exactly look like two females.
British papers use “partner” for all personal relationships, including marriage. (What they use for a contracted business association such as a law firm, I don’t know.)
“Pakistani man and Pakistani woman murdered ...” seems more accurate. She was certainly pretty.
