BREAKING: The Chief Justice who heard Novak Djokovic’s final legal appeal has revealed exactly why tennis star Novak Djokovic was deported.
The three judges of the Federal Court’s full bench unanimously ordered the world No. 1 to leave Australia on Sunday and to pay all of Mr Hawke’s legal costs.
“An iconic world tennis star may influence people of all ages, young or old, but perhaps especially the young and the impressionable, to emulate him,” the document reads. The judges also found Djokovic’s decision to attend an interview while Covid-positive was a bad omen for what may have developed in Australia.
“It was open to infer that this, if emulated, may encourage an attitude of breach of public health regulations.”“I’d like to make a brief statement to address the outcomes of today’s Court hearing,” he said. “I will now be taking some time to rest and to recuperate, before making any further comments beyond this.
