'We are very concerned about time,' Wood told the emergency hearing. The government told Djokovic's lawyers it had no intention of detaining him tonight.<br> Australia has cancelled Novak Djokovic 's visa for a second time, the country's immigration minister announced on Friday.<br><br>Pictured: Djokovic rests during a training session at Melbourne Park, Australia, January 14, 2022<br> Pictured: A video on Friday evening showed a car - believed to be carrying Novak Djokovic - arriving at his lawyer's officers ahead of the late night hearing being announced<br> more videos <br><br>DM.later('bundle', function()<br>DM.molFeCarousel.init('#p-21', 'channelCarousel', <br>"activeClass" : "wocc",<br>"pageCount" : "3.0",<br>"pageSize" : 1,<br>"onPos": 0,<br>"updateStyleOnHover": true<br>);<br>);<br>The saga has intensified global debate over rights of choice for vaccines, raised questions over Australia's bungled handling of Djokovic's visa and become a tricky issue for Prime Minister Scott Morrison as he campaigns for re-election. <br>Morrison said Friday his government cancelled Novak Djokovic's visa to protect Australia's hard-won gains against the Covid-19 pandemic.<br>'Australians have made many sacrifices during this pandemic, and they rightly expect the result of those sacrifices to be protected,' Morrison said in a statement. <br>'I note the Minister for Immigration's decision in relation to Mr Novak Djokovic's visa.<br>'I understand that following careful consideration, action has been taken by the Minister to cancel Mr Djokovic's visa held on health and good order grounds, on the basis that it was in the public interest to do so,' Morrison said.<br>'This pandemic has been incredibly difficult for every Australian but we have stuck together and saved lives and livelihoods.' <br>Immigration Minister Alex Hawke used discretionary powers to again cancel Djokovic's visa, after a court quashed an earlier revocation and released him from immigration detention on Monday. <br>'Today I exercised my power under section 133C(3) of the Migration Act to cancel the visa held by Mr Novak Djokovic on health and good order grounds, on the basis that it was in the public interest to do so,' Hawke said in a statement.<br>'This decision followed orders by the Federal Circuit and Family Court on 10 January 2022, quashing a prior cancellation decision on procedural fairness grounds.<br>'In making this decision, I carefully considered information provided to me by the Department of Home Affairs, the Australian Border Force and Mr Djokovic.<br>'The Morrison Government is firmly committed to protecting Australia's borders, particularly in relation to the Covid-19 pandemic.'<br> RELATED ARTICLES <br><br><br><br>Share this article<br>Share<br><br><br>Mr Hawke's decision comes just three days out from the start of the Australian Open where Djokovic had hoped to become the most successful male player of all time. <br>It will likely result in another round of court action by the 34-year-old Serb who has already won the Open nine times, and throw the grand slam tournament into further disarray.<br>However, legal experts say it would be difficult - if not impossible - for Djokovic to successfully challenge a visa cancellation decision made personally by the Immigration Minister. <br>Djokovic could be held in detention in Melbourne while the Open goes on without the world's top ranked player, creating a nightmare scenario for Tennis Australia.<br>Protests have been predicted and the federal government can expect an international backlash in response to its decision, particularly from Serbia. <br> Pictured: Serbian tennis player Novak Djokovic stands at a booth of the Australian Border Force at the airport in Melbourne, Australia, January 5, 2022<br> more videos <br><br>DM.
