The mystery deepens as significant questions arrise:
https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/tennis/novak-djokovic-covid-test-australian-open-b1991322.html wrote:The validity of Novak Djokovic’s positive Covid test continues to come under scrutiny after an investigation suggested the test was returned 10 days after originally claimed.

German newspaper Der Spiegel alleged that their analysis of the digital version of the test showed a timestamp from the 26 December.

However Der Spiegel have also claimed that the digital test showed a negative result for some time, though a scan of the QR code does now show a Covid positive.
So QR shows negative result for some time then magically changes to positive!

The tennis ace says he tested positive for Covid on December 16 in documentation submitted to Aussie Border Force officials.

Additionally serial numbering issues emerge

It is also higher than for his second (negative) test result from six days later.
...
A German research group called Zerforschung first picked up on the discrepancy that the earlier test had a higher confirmation code than the later one.

Which does seem to raise major questions as to whether these test results are real of if somebody has been forging results for getting round immigration laws.

I wouldn't believe a word Djokovic says. He's an arrogant prat and has known sympathies with the Serbian far-right and convicted war criminals. That's enough information for me to make a judgement of the man's character.

His "supporters" who rampaged through the streets in Australia were not your average tennis fans. They were chanting nationalist slogans and waving far-right banners.

And this is at a time when Serbian militias and mercenaries are traveling to the Ukrainian border to fight with the Russians if the need arises.

I've just looked at the Poll Results:

Yes Djokovic Will be deported. 5 45%
No Djokovic Will Not be deported. 6 55%

So CUK crowdsourcing is not a good method for predicting legal process :P

That's based on eleven votes.

Perhaps threads with a poll should be rationed. eg One a year per member absolute max

Also
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Novak_Djokovic#Views_on_diet,_medicine_and_science wrote:In his 2013 autobiography, Serve to Win, he wrote of a "researcher" who directed "anger, fear, hostility" at a glass of water, which turned "slightly green" after a few days, while also directing "love, joy" at another glass of water, which remained "bright and crystal clear" in the same period.[398][493] In 2020, Djokovic spoke of his knowledge of "some people" using "prayer" and "gratitude" to "turn the most toxic food, or maybe most polluted water into the most healing water." He also said that "scientists [have] proven" that "molecules in the water react to our emotions" and speech.[494][495] Such claims are scientifically dubious.

"Novak Djokovic will not be allowed to compete at the Indian Wells and Miami ATP Masters 1000 tournaments this month after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention definitively ruled that he cannot enter the United States while he remains unvaccinated from Covid-19."
