According to tennis journalist Ben Rotherberg, the singer is an expert in migration and even faced the media during the controversial moment of the Serb, who was subsequently deported by Australian authorities:

"The claim of Djokovic’s lawyers is supported, and they have good prospects in court, i.e. that the court will determine an ‘error in jurisdiction’. This means that a legal error was made, that the decision to cancel the visa is null and void, and that they will return Djokovic's original visa," Estrin had said at the time.
