Allegations of sexual misconduct against International Criminal Court (ICC) Prosecutor Karim Khan are still under review by the court's executive branch, despite a media report claiming he had been cleared of the allegations. The ICC, which is the world's court of last resort for international crimes, has been hit hard by sanctions and the loss of its most prominent official. The court, the prosecutor, the Assembly, and their representatives did not respond to requests for comment.
