ICC staffer repeats misconduct allegations against prosecutor Karim Khan in TV interview
THE HAGUE: A junior lawyer at the International Criminal Court on Thursday repeated her allegations that prosecutor Karim Khan had non-consensual sexual contact with her, in a CNN interview that was her first public media appearance.
Khan, 56, denies any wrongdoing. His lawyer, Sareta Ashraph, told CNN he denies “any form of sexual contact, relationship, consensual or non-consensual” with the alleged victim.
Khan’s lawyers did not immediately respond to Reuters’ request for comment.
The woman, identified only as Sarah, would not comment on the ICC’s investigations into Khan, but told CNN he had shown escalating behavior of touching and groping her, recounting a time she said he touched her intimately while she was pretending to be asleep.
