IDP CAMPS, SITTWE, MYANMAR - 2013/04/18: A Rohingya girl's parents mourn for their daughter who has just died in the IDP (Internally Displaced Persons) refugee camps of Sittwe - constant rain turned their earthen floors into mud and the cold of the night caused the young child to die of hypothermia in the early hours of the morning. Sittwe now has over 125,000 people who are isolated after violence on Muslims had flared up against the Rohingya ethic group located in Western Burma. In the shadow of Burma's democratic development is an ongoing humanitarian disaster. According to the United Nations, the Rohingya are the most persecuted people in the world. They are scattered across countries including Bangladesh, Malaysia with the majority living in Burma. The violence escalated after three Rohingya men raped and murdered a Buddhist woman leading to the death of 10 muslim men on June 3rd 2012. Two of the men responsible for the victim's murder were sentenced to death whilst the third committed suicide. (Photo by Jonas Gratzer/LightRocket via Getty Images)
