Two houses has been found, but not bought yet. Other things still remain to get the deal more detailed. It’s not clear what will happen when Congolese authorities get a more detailed agreement. Will they demand other things? Or will the agreement be enough so that the Foreign Ministry/Justice Department can start conversations again so that Joshua and Tjostolv can come home to Norway? A representative from the Norwegian embassy has been for a visit in Kisangani from Friday till yesterday. She is going to have meetings in the capital regarding transferring the boys from Kisangani to Kinshasa. We’ve been promised a transfer so many times without it happening. I spoke to Joshua recently. The weekend has been long, and they, as we, are tired.
