ICC's Karim Khan to Seek Arrest Warrants for Taliban Officials Over Crimes Against Humanity Following Referral from Six Nations
Dec 3, 2024, 07:38 AM
The International Criminal Court (ICC) is preparing to announce applications for arrest warrants against Taliban officials in connection with alleged human rights violations in Afghanistan. Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan stated that the court has gathered more evidence in the past 18 months than in its first 20 years, and highlighted that of the 30 arrest warrants issued by the ICC, 18 have been made in the last three years. This development follows a formal referral from six nations, including Chile, Costa Rica, Spain, and France, urging the ICC to investigate crimes against humanity, particularly concerning the suppression of women's rights, including education and employment. The ICC's actions are seen as a significant step towards holding Taliban officials accountable for their policies and actions since they regained control of Afghanistan.
