As Novak Djokovic was denied a visa by the Minister for Immigration, Alex Hawke, the lawyers of the best tennis player in the world have announced that they are preparing an appeal.
As long as the trial lasts, Novak will not be deported from the state, nor will he be detained until Saturday, when he will appear at the court hearing.
Djokovic’s first statement will be tonight at 10 pm local time (8 am Australian time) in the immigration office, and until then he will stay in the hotel, while detention is possible after the statement.
Lawyers for the Serbian ace demanded that number one be released until a decisive decision is made.
“It would not be good for Djokovic to be detained again tomorrow and for a media circus to be held again 24 hours before the new trial,” Wood said.
