Djokovic weilt derweil noch immer im Park Hotel von Melbourne. Dieses darf er nicht verlassen, bis am Montag über seinen Rekurs entschieden wird. (dab)
#Djokovic has been denied the request to spend his quarantine period in a rented apartment where his team is at. Still doesn't have his wallet, and his belongings are at the airport. Some bugs in his room, also.

2 separate medical boards approved his exemption
And politicians are stopping it
Australia doesn’t deserve to host a grand slam https://t.co/3B6lt4u9Mq
We’ve got Djokovic supporters on the left and refugee advocates on the right.

One Djokovic supporter just said to me “I feel so ignorant. I came here for him, and find out they’ve been locked up nine years. It’s so wrong.” pic.twitter.com/elBDkJAZEl

Djokovic paperwork on arrival was “minimal” and only supported by one doctor, sources said. Far less substantive than the 3 others who entered using same vaccine exemption. When officials asked him to hand up more documentation none was produced @theage https://t.co/pMDVDh2hOw

Mr Djokovic’s visa has been cancelled. Rules are rules, especially when it comes to our borders. No one is above these rules. Our strong border policies have been critical to Australia having one of the lowest death rates in the world from COVID, we are continuing to be vigilant.

Greg Hunt, Australia's health minister, confirms Djokovic has failed to provide 'appropriate standards of proof' to enter the country and that he will be sent home.

Breaking: Novak Djokovic's visa has been cancelled. He's been told to leave the country today, two sources confirmed to @theage. His Lawyers are in the process of appealing. He's not demonstrated to Border Force sufficient evidence for his exemption https://t.co/TM5BF0Gu80

There is an increasing possibility that Djokovic will be on the next flight home. Both the Serbian Embassy and the Australian Ambassador to Serbia are now becoming involved. A lonely-looking Australian Open courtesy car still waiting for him outside airport.

"If they don't let him go in half an hour, we will gather on the street"

At 5.30am, 6 hours after Novak Djokovic landed in Melbourne, he's still being questioned by Border Force officials in an airport room. They're assessing docs to support his vax exemption. A source said the longer it goes, the smaller the chance he'll be permitted entry @theage https://t.co/KwEAdCTQjN

Novak Djokovic's father confirms to B92 that the World No. 1 is "currently isolated in a room in Tullamarine Airport and no one can enter there."
— Gaspar Ribeiro Lança (@gasparlanca) January 5, 2022
Also according to B92 "there are two police officers in front of the room where the Serbian is."
Djokovic being quizzed about evidence to support vax exemption by border officials in airport room hours after landing. Fed govt source said COVID infection in past 6mos - suspected basis for Novak's exemption - may not suffice under border laws https://t.co/TM5BF0Gu80 @theage https://t.co/rfBv2UwkVQ

Djokovic landed about 30 mins ago. Federal officials realised hours before his visa application was erroneous. Border Force asked Vic authorities to support visa, which was rejected. BF has discretion to allow entry, but his pathway in is uncertain https://t.co/TM5BF0Gu80 @theage https://t.co/ytB34ldarX
