The Moscow City Court sentenced the ICC prosecutor who issued Putin's arrest warrant to 15 years in absentia.
The Moscow City Court convicted International Criminal Court prosecutor Karim Khan and several ICC judges in absentia. The court found that from February to March 2022, they unlawfully prosecuted Russian citizens. The ICC Presidium also ordered the judges to issue arrest warrants for Russian citizens without legal basis.
Karim Khan was sentenced to 15 years in prison: nine years in prison and the remainder in a maximum-security penal colony. The remaining ICC representatives were found guilty of unlawful prosecution, unlawful detention, and threats to attack individuals or organizations under international protection.
Previously, Karim Khan issued arrest warrants for Russian President Putin, Children's Rights Ombudsman Maria Lvova-Belova, former Defense Minister and current Security Council Secretary Sergei Shoigu, Chief of the General Staff Valery Gerasimov, and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
