ICC to vote in secret on removing prosecutor Karim Khan over misconduct claims
The ICC will hold a secret-ballot vote by its 125 member states to decide whether to dismiss Prosecutor Karim Khan over sexual misconduct allegations; a 63-vote majority is required, and a dismissal would trigger a subsequent election for a new prosecutor. Khan denies the charges, argues the process is unjust and politicized, and the case is linked to ongoing Gaza war-crimes probes and U.S. sanctions against the ICC.
