"The judicial experts tasked with assessing the United Nations probe's factual findings unanimously concluded that no misconduct or breach of duty by Khan could be established under the legal framework."
"A minority of bureau members have reportedly been pushing for the judicial experts' report to be set aside and for the bureau to substitute its own conclusions for those of the panel."
"We are concerned that it would undermine the quality of subsequent decisions in Khan's case and seriously damage the integrity of the ICC's governance framework."
"Strict adherence to due process, the highest standards of decision-making, and the rule of law is of paramount importance to prevent ill-founded decisions, political interference."
Judicial experts concluded that no misconduct by ICC prosecutor Karim Khan was established. The Bureau of the Assembly of States Parties must decide whether to uphold this finding. A minority seeks to disregard the report, risking the integrity of the ICC's governance. Serious misconduct could lead to Khan's removal. Zero tolerance for workplace abuse is essential, but due process and high decision-making standards must be maintained to avoid political interference and ensure accountability.
