Exclusive: Staff in Karim Khan's office write in support of his return to ICC Submitted by Imran Mulla on Tue, 04/07/2026 - 14:52 A group purporting to represent the 'silent majority' urges respect for judicial findings on the prosecutor's alleged misconduct International Criminal Court prosecutor Karim Khan attends a press conference at the San Carlos Palace in Bogota, Colombia, on 25 April 2024 (AFP) Off A group of staff members at the International Criminal Court (ICC), describing themselves as the "silent majority", have written to the court’s governing body twice since last week, in support of prosecutor Karim Khan returning to his duties, Middle East Eye can reveal. MEE reported last month that a panel of judges appointed by the Bureau of the Assembly of States Parties (ASP), the ICC’s governing body, concluded that a United Nations investigation had not established any "misconduct or breach of duty" by Khan. But MEE later reported that a majority of ASP members on Wednesday backed a motion to disregard the judges' report, and suggesting that Khan may have committed some form of misconduct.
