This question was previously asked in
RPF SI 2018 Question Paper PDF (10-Jan-2019) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

Foreigner

The suffix '-cide' means killing, and the prefix tells who is killed.

Matricide is the killing of one's mother ('matri' = mother).

Similarly, Xenocide is the killing of foreigners or strangers ('xeno' = foreign).

So the second pair is completed by Foreigner.

Hence, Foreigner.
