ICC prosecutor under increased pressure from sexual misconduct probe
Briefly

Karim Khan, the International Criminal Court chief prosecutor since 2021, is facing serious sexual misconduct allegations from a junior colleague. Reports indicate he is accused of multiple instances of inappropriate touching, harassment, and forced sexual intercourse in various locations, including New York and Paris. While Khan's lawyers deny the allegations, the case is under external investigation following a previous internal inquiry that ended quickly without action. Additionally, the timing of Khan's recent arrest warrant against Israeli officials has raised suspicions, as some critics question whether his actions were intended to deflect attention from the misconduct claims.
