The Australian Immigration Minister, Alex Hawke, has pointed out that the decision has been made “for reasons of health and good order”.
The Government of Australia has canceled this Friday the visa of the Serbian tennis player Novak Djokovic, so the number one in the world will have to leave the country and will not be able to play the Australian Open, the first ‘Grand Slam’ of the season that begins next Monday.
The Australian Immigration Minister, Alex Hawke, has pointed out that the decision has been made based on health and order maintenance reasons.
Djokovic traveled to Melbourne on January 5 with a medical exemption that allowed him to play the Australian Open without being vaccinated with coronavirus, although later the Australian authorities canceled his visa and detained him until a court ruling on Monday agreed with the tennis player.
In the document to enter Australia, he declared that he had not traveled in the previous 14 days, but he moved from Serbia to Spain and in his country of origin he granted an interview to a French media knowing that he was positive for covid-19.
Everything indicates that the 34-year-old Serb’s lawyers will appeal this decision in court, but it is unknown whether or not the appeal will be processed on time.
Faced with a possible deportation, he could not enter Australia for three years.
