The International Criminal ​Court's member states voted ‌on ⁠Wednesday to move ahead with disciplinary proceedings ‌against ‌Chief Prosecutor Karim ‌Khan after receiving two ‌reports of sexual-assault allegations against him, ⁠the ‌Wall Street Journal reported, citing officials familiar with ‌the vote.

Reuters could not ​immediately verify the report.

Khan, who investigates war crimes, crimes against humanity and ⁠genocide, has stepped ⁠aside ⁠temporarily pending an investigation ​into ​accusations ‌of a non-consensual sexual relationship ‌with a ⁠lawyer in his office. He rejects ⁠any allegations of wrongdoing.
