Thereafter, Djokovic will be remanded in custody until further notice, although the player will not be deported until Minister Hawke’s decision is reconsidered.
The process must be completed before the start of the Australian Open in Melbourne between January 17 and 30, in which Djokovic hopes to win his tenth title and become the most successful tennis player in history with 21 Grand Prix.
