A Roma woman attends the funeral of Roma woman Maria Balogh, aged 45, in Kisleta, eastern Hungary in this August 7, 2009 file photo. Balogh and her 13-year old daughter Ketrin were asleep at home last week when attackers burst in and shot the mother dead with pellet guns. It was the latest in a string of murders of Roma in Hungary. The pain of economic downturn is exacerbating tensions and resentment towards minorities and immigrants across Europe and even in north Africa. Picture taken August 7, 2009.
