ICC governing body set to rule on prosecutor Karim Khan misconduct claims

The International Criminal Court's governing body is meeting to consider a judicial panel's report on sexual misconduct allegations against chief prosecutor Karim Khan. The 21-member Bureau of the Assembly of States Parties will decide whether to suspend or remove Khan, who has been on leave since May 2024. The report, judged to the 'beyond reasonable doubt' standard, remains confidential and its conclusions have not been made public.
