Church asylum is not the solution
The Bishop of Sør-Hålogaland, Tor B. Jørgensen, understands the desperate situation for a Kosovo-Serbian family trying to avoid being returned to their homeland, but says that church asylum is the solution.
The family, with three small children, is now in Rognan church, in an attempt to avoid being sent out of the cuntry, after their application for asylum in Norway was turned down.
- The fact that this family has chosen to enter the church and to stay there in order to consider the situation, and to be in pece for a wile, we must accept, but I see no other solution to this case other than that they must return to their homeland, the bishop says.
