## Resource

The ICC’s chief prosecutor Karim Khan has been ousted in a historic vote, becoming the first person ever removed from the post after allegations of sexual misconduct with a female aide — claims he denies. The 125-member court voted decisively following a probe that found he engaged in serious misconduct, including blocking her allegations. Though Khan was temporarily suspended in June, member states moved ahead with removal ahead of schedule, sparking global debate. Human rights groups and nations are divided, and the move comes amid rising external pressure on the ICC — especially from the U.S. — and tangled investigations. While political factors may have played a role, especially regarding warrants against Western allies, existing arrest warrants for Israeli officials remain unaffected, as only ICC judges can revoke them. This unprecedented removal underscores the court’s mounting internal and external challenges as it pursues justice for the world’s most serious crimes.
