ICC chief prosecutor Karim Khan suspended pending disciplinary proceedings over sexual misconduct allegations.
Karim Khan, the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, was suspended from his duties after the court's oversight body referred him for disciplinary proceedings. The referral follows a UN investigation that found evidence of nonconsensual sexual contact with a female aide, allegations Khan denies. A three-judge panel found the investigation inconclusive, and the Assembly of States Parties will now decide his fate.

The split, in one line
Coverage now splits between procedural restraint (Al Jazeera emphasizes suspension pending vote) and misconduct findings (Times of Israel reports probe conclusion of serious misconduct), with Khan's rejection and member-state authority universally noted but weighted differently across outlets.
