World tennis number one Novak Djokovic won a shock victory in his bid to remain in Australia Monday, with a judge ordering his immediate release from immigration detention.

Judge Anthony Kelly abruptly ended days of legal wrangling, after the state dropped its decision to revoke the star's visa.

But a government lawyer warned Australia may yet use ministerial powers to order Djokovic's removal from the country, which would result in him being banned for three years. With the Australian government facing a humiliating and high profile defeat, lawyer Christopher Tran informed the judge that immigration minister Alex Hawke may step in with executive powers.Source

Novax shouldn't have been allowed in the country, but he was. Fire the official who sanctioned his visa.

Djokivic is standing for the unvaxeed ✊🏿

Weldone Novak..✊✊

Australian government still threatening to deport him still 😂

Sounds like a 3rd world to me 😂😂😂

The guy did not enter the country illegally. He has a legitimate visa. He is also there at the invitation of Australian tennis. A flip flop by an Australian politician would be a disaster for the country.

And then do what..mix with everyone else or go and play?

if this was SA, the govt. would just appeal it to death.

Rules apply to everyone! There were families who haven't seen their loved ones in Aus. who have been denied entry, why should he be any different?

Rules are rules and should be applied uniformly across the board. Who wants to be that guy who received preferential treatment? Ew!

Djoker must sue the Aussie gov't

Why is it a 'shock victory'? Decision makes perfect sense.

If I was Novax Djokovic I would start my match and walk off the court with 🖕 you all and leave the country.. 🤭🤔🤔
