ICC Chief Prosecutor Khan cleared of sexual misconduct by judges: Report

International Criminal Court judges have cleared Karim Khan, the ICC's chief prosecutor, of sexual misconduct allegations, according to a report. Khan had denied the accusations and voluntarily stepped away from his position in May while the investigation proceeded. The clearance removes a significant obstacle to his potential return to lead the prosecutor's office, which handles investigations into war crimes and crimes against humanity globally. Khan's temporary absence had raised questions about continuity in several high-profile investigations, including cases involving alleged atrocities in Ukraine, Palestine, and elsewhere. The resolution allows the ICC to move forward on decisions about his future role at the institution.
