Melbourne: On Jan 7, it was reported that Tennis world No. 1 Novak Djokovic joined Czech women’s player Renata Voracova in Australian immigration detention. This is due to a row over COVID-19 vaccines that could damage the Serbian’s shot at a record-breaking 21st Grand Slam. Both players were being kept at the modest Park Hotel in inner-city Melbourne where scores of asylum pleaders were also boarded behind grey walls and locked windows.
