## Resource

The chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, Karim Khan, faces imminent removal after being suspended for serious misconduct and breach of duty, stemming from a two-year-old sexual misconduct allegation involving a female aide. Though Khan denies wrongdoing and his legal team calls the proceedings unlawful, a UN investigation found evidence of non-consensual contact—though the UN’s findings were deemed inconclusive by an internal panel. Khan had already stepped aside in May, and the ICC, which operates independently of the UN, is navigating unprecedented legal territory, having created new rules to handle this case. The alleged victim remains largely unseen throughout the process, while advocates push for transparency. The final decision rests with the Assembly of States Parties, who are expected to convene a special session soon, urged by the current ICC president to resolve this swiftly.
