The right wing Jobbik paramilitary group has occupied the village of Gyongyospata, 50 miles from Budapest...since March 1, 2011.
The town had a population of 2,800...with about 450 Roma.
Since then...the paras have been busy fighting 'gypsy crime'...and instilling fear.
Helen Pidd describes the widespread fear...as Roma attempt to flee the village...and Hungary...for Canada.
