Member states of the International Criminal Court voted on Friday to remove chief prosecutor Karim Khan from his position following allegations of sexual misconduct, marking the first time in the court's 24-year history that a sitting prosecutor has been dismissed.

Diplomats overseeing the International Criminal Court's governance have formally recommended that chief prosecutor Karim Khan be removed from office for maintaining an inappropriate sexual relationship with a junior staff member, according to copies of the decision obtained by Reuters.
