Exclusive: Judges clear ICC’s Karim Khan over sexual misconduct claims

A panel of judges has cleared International Criminal Court chief prosecutor Karim Khan of all wrongdoing related to sexual misconduct allegations. The judges reviewed a UN investigation and concluded that the findings did not establish any misconduct or breach of duty. This confidential report was submitted to the ICC’s executive oversight body, which has yet to reach a consensus on closing the investigation. The allegations against Khan unfolded as his office was pursuing a war crimes investigation against Israeli officials over the war in Gaza.
