Tennis Star Novak Djokovic Faces Deportation After Losing His Case

Publish date: Thursday، 22 December 2022

Tennis superstar Novak Djokovic faces deportation from Australia after the federal court canceled his visa on Sunday after deciding against vaccination for Covid-19. The country said that he is posing a risk. Three judges ruled for his deportation, and the player was very disappointed because he was to take part in the Australian Open that starts on Monday; however, he said:

“I respect the Court’s ruling, and I will cooperate with the relevant authorities in relation to my departure from the country.”

Despite him appealing for the first rule to cancel his visa for being a threat to public order, he would encourage all anti-vaccinators that would pose a threat to Australian society.

I welcome today’s unanimous decision by the Full Federal Court of Australia, upholding my decision to exercise my power under the Migration Act to cancel Mr Novak Djokovic’s visa in the public interest.
