ICC Prosecutor Khan Steps Aside Amid Misconduct Probe

ICC Prosecutor Khan Steps Aside Amid Misconduct Probe

The top boss at the International Criminal Court, Karim Khan, has taken a break from his job.

This is because someone has accused him of doing something wrong.

A woman says he acted inappropriately towards her, but Khan denies it.

The UN is looking into these claims.

While the investigation happens, Khan won't be running the court, and his helpers will take over.

The ICC handles big cases like war crimes, but it's not able to arrest anyone, and already has enemies.
