The chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court in The Hague has become the subject of an investigation into allegations of harassment of colleagues. One of Khan's potential victims reported the incident to management, although she did not want publicity. Regulators interviewed the victim, but she refused to file a formal complaint and the investigation was closed.
The chief prosecutor denies the allegations and suggests he is facing a smear campaign. The President of the Assembly of States Parties confirmed the information about Khan's unlawful actions. She said the court takes misconduct very seriously and is committed to cooperating with the investigation.
Khan stated his willingness to cooperate with the investigation if it continues, and noted the absence of similar complaints throughout his legal career. In May of this year, Khan requested the arrest of Hamas leaders and Israeli officials on charges of war crimes.
