The ICC’s chief prosecutor, Karim Khan, faces imminent removal after a damning report accused him of serious misconduct—including a sexual relationship with a subordinate and covering it up—sparking global controversy and deepening divisions within the court’s 125 member nations. While Khan denies the allegations, claiming they’re politically motivated, the Assembly of States Parties prepares for a secret vote to decide his fate. Human rights groups are split: some support the accuser, others, including Palestinian organizations, call the investigation biased. Former HRW officials say Khan’s credibility is gone. Though the Netherlands and France plan to vote for his ouster, the outcome remains uncertain. Regardless, experts warn the ICC will emerge from this crisis weakened, as U.S. pressure continues to mount.
