JUST IN: Djokovic Faces Deportation As Visa Is Revoked Again

Tennis star Novak Djokovic has faced deportation as his visa has been revoked again.

Gatekeepers News reports that the Australian government has revoked Djokovic’s visa for a second time on public interest grounds three days before the Australian Open is to begin.

Immigration Minister Alex Hawke on Friday said he used his ministerial discretion to revoke the 34-year-old Serb’s visa.

As they did earlier, Djokovic’s lawyers are expected to appeal the cancelation in the Federal Circuit and Family Court.

This is a developing story.
