Khan’s accuser, named only ⁠as Sarah, recently told CNN that Khan had shown escalating behaviour of touching and groping her, recounting a time she said he touched her intimately while she was pretending to be asleep.

Khan has denied any wrongdoing and his lawyers have called the process that led to the vote procedurally unfair and unsupported by evidence.

Khan was leading probes into multiple conflicts, but his decision in 2024 to seek arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant over war crime charges in Gaza prompted an intense backlash from governments and advocacy groups.

Former European Union chief diplomat Josep Borrell wrote in an editorial that the case against Khan is “obviously part of a larger offensive against the ICC”.
