- ICC states decision on Karim Khan ‘inherently political’, says leading criminal law expert
The Assembly of States Parties (ASP) to the Rome Statute voted to remove ICC prosecutor Karim Khan after an 18-month misconduct investigation. Legal experts, including William Schabas, argue the decision was politically driven and undermined the court's independence, citing inconsistencies between the ASP's ruling and a prior judicial panel's conclusion of no wrongdoing.
